Johnny's Birthday Party!

 Johnny had a great birthday! Despite his many interests, he'd been talking about a space and rocket ship party for a few months now. And then, of course, the night before he starts telling everyone he wants a truck party. haha But he was happy the next morning to see all his decorations! 

A huge shout out to my neighbor and bestie, Giannina, who made this balloon arch for us! She's amazing!

After all that excitement, he got to open presents!

 

And then we had the traditional Harrison coffee cake.

Of course there was a photo shoot.

We ended up spending the afternoon at some gardens, Johnny's choice. But I decided to make that a separate post and keep this one nice and space themed. ;)

After we got home, we had a wild little birthday party with a few friends from the neighborhood. 

Cake and astronaut ice cream. ;)

I kept things simple. We played a fun and wild game of stomp rocket.

 

Opened presents.

Had cake.

And then hit a pinata.

 

The loot- mini stomp rockets, pop rocks, glow sticks, a rocket flash light, galaxy bounce ball, space tattoos, a necklace, and a slap bracelet. Why do I spent money on crap that they've probably already forgotten? Nobody knows. Except, LOOK how cute it is!

 

And then Giannina surprised us with this amazing balloon rocket! He loved it!

After everyone left we had homemade pizzas and a movie night. Johnny could hardly be bothered with sleep when there were so many new toys in his bedroom but finally that three year old boy gave in and had sweet dreams of a great day.

And I, on the other hand, might have some nightmares of little children all pushing each other for a turn to stomp rockets but otherwise I'm fine.
