Riley's 4th Birthday Party

Riley wanted a Knights birthday party this year...I thought it would be easy to find the gear, but I was wrong!  That's ok, though, I had a blast getting creative with it.  Here are a TON of pictures of the festivities...

I made some shields for the boys and ordered inflatable swords.  I had this grand idea that I could get a pic of all the "knights and ladies" with their gear, but not one child stood still for the entire party.

Hats and accessories for the little princesses!
Princess Bayley arrived in her gown...5 minutes later she was in jeans, ready to rumble in the jumpy castle!
Kourtney and Jason brought Lady Holly for her first birthday party!  She is beautiful!
Grandma with Payton and Carter
Here is the castle!  It barely fit in our yard.  The kids LOVED it!  I was freaking out the day before because it had been 75 degrees all week, but forecasted to be freezing cold and snowy for Saturday.  Thank goodness Kathy Sabine was wrong!  It was chilly, but still sunny and beautiful out.
Gabriel, wielding his sword.
Here comes Elle!  Look at that face!
Woah!
Ok...speechless.  Maybe my mind is in the gutter...but I wasn't the only one who found this disturbing!!
Steve, under attack!
Bayley and Riley...not sure what's going on here...
Riley and Vaughn
Steve was tossing the kids down the slide!
The inflatable swords were great...all the action, none of the injuries!
The cake design was a scan of the invitations.
Happy Birthday big guy!

Tanner
Got a little something on your face, O!
Present time!
He's not shy...
Nice face!
The Queen Mothers.  We were sad that General couldn't be there, he was in DC for meetings that he couldn't get out of. He was way bummed!
Owen, Carter and Bubs.

Cute!
I challenged Steve to do a flip in the castle after most of the kids had left.  It went well...but he's quite sore today!  Be sure to check out the video!
Plumber crack!
