3 Parties ALL in ONE

My friends Melanie and Krista both have a child born with in a week of Scarlett. We decided we would just have a little simple birthday party for the 3 of them. Mapuana's birthday is February 27th she turned 5, Austin's birthday is March 6th he turned 4, and Scarlett's birthday is March 1st and she turned 2. 
We celebrated their birthdays by getting some pizza and then having a young women from church (Daniella) come and make balloon animals for the kids. Then we opened presents and ate cake.  It was quite nice keeping it simple with just us 3 families. Our kids play really good together. Plus this way they don't get a ton of presents (believe me none of them need any more toys) and we one had one party to worry about instead of 3 different ones. 
The kids obviously were more excited about the balloon swords instead of the balloon animals. They loved their swords and their hates. Lo got them all rallied up when he got the nerf gun out and started attacking them. They LOVED this. All you could hear was a ton of screaming and laughing.
These 6 kids are not the easiest to get a picture of all together, especially with all their balloons in their hands. (obviously cause Mo and Ryan are not even in these pictures)
What Daniella made for them... a giant octopus, a smaller octopus, flowers, swords, hats, dogs, birds, and bracelets.
Present time is definitely a highlight for the birthday kids. 
Here they are Scarlett, Austin and Mapuana
They each loved their presents from their friends.
Of course their is no time to wait and open everything once we get home. Scarlett wanted it all open right then.
The 3 Birthday kids!
They are very cute!
Yummy cake that Krista made.
Making their wishes!
Of course anytime its nice outside the kids love going out and enjoying the trampoline and Krista's house.
They just get all crazy and laugh a ton
Having 3 birthdays all in one was such a success!!! The kids each had a blast, the parents enjoyed each others company, and Daniella did a great job with all the different balloons!
