Lincoln's 6th Birthday Party!

Lincoln's 6th birthday party was super fun!!!  He picked Angry Birds as his theme, and he was so excited to celebrate with Kindergarten friends: from his class, soccer team, basketball team, and baseball team.  The door decoration was a picture of sweet Lincoln!
Nana never disappoints in helping with decorations.  As usual, Lincoln has the cutest party ever! 
Stein's cupcakes were the best.  We added Angry Birds rings for the boys and flower rings for the little sister siblings.  They were definitely a hit! 
Since this is our first party with Kindergarten friends, the parents didn't know about how we roll in the food department.  Once the gym time was over, they helped the kiddos devour the Chick-fil-A and Campisi's pizza! 
The birthday boy had so much fun playing with his friends at the gymnastics place.  He took a quick break to pose for a picture for Katie (the party pic girl for the day - thanks Katie!)  How sweet does he look? 
One minute later . . . Beau, Canon, Griffin, Jonathan, William, Isak, and Preston decided to join Lincoln in his little circle!  So glad they love each other so much! 
The brothers had a few sweet minutes of bounce house time, and Beau was happy to get a little alone time with Lincoln at the party.   
The kids all sat down to learn the rules of the noodle game.  Lincoln got a noodle and had to select a friend to have a noodle too.  The shouts of "Pick Me!" was crazy, but Lincoln couldn't help but pick his best brother Beau.  They had to tag the other kids with their noodles as they ran past on the gym floor.  It was super fun! 
The coaches organized the kids for a group picture.  Lincoln was so proud to have so many friends surrounding him.  Two guys specifically made sure to be by his side, Beau and Nick.  It was such a great group! 
When we were finished in the gym, we hit the party room for nuggets and pizza.  A few sneaky boys had already claimed their seats by the birthday boy.  Beau was on Lincoln's right, and Canon was on Lincoln's left followed closely by Ben.  We passed out cupcakes and sang Happy Birthday to Lincoln.  He got a little embarrassed with everyone looking at him, and he snuck Mommy a look with his eyes filling with tears because he was just overwhelmed with joy.  Lincoln is seriously the best!!!
He couldn't wait to hand out the favor boxes that we have worked on all week.  He designed every part of the favor boxes and placed each item in carefully.  The guests were almost as happy to receive them as he was to hand them out! 
It was such a fun party!  The parents had a great time visiting while the boys ran wild and had fun.  Good food, good friends, and good time for all. We headed home with tons of gifts, and Lincoln was blessed with so many fun presents.  Tons of Lego sets, the Gooey Louie game he had been eyeing, a few craft projects, a few sports gifts, and lots of cards and gift cards.   
Lincoln is sure that this was his best birthday EVER!  So glad to share in his joy on this special day.  His happiness was contagious, and everyone there was in the best spirits.  Happy Birthday to the best 6 year old this Mom could ever know!
