5th birthday party

Cody requested an army themed party this year. We had "boot camp"...where the kids completed an obstacle course, tug-of-war and target practice with water balloon grenades. After boot camp the kids swam in the pool and then it was time for cake and ice cream. It was such a fun time. It was a long day, Cody's cousin, Evan, has a birthday the day after Cody's, so his party was also on Saturday. We were all partied out Saturday night!
