Jackson's Birthday Party

This was the funnest birthday party. I was the official photographer...really I was. It was a science party. My cute friend Kate did a whole bunch of science experiments for the kids. They had so much fun predicting what was going to happen. The boys were thrilled they got to stay out late and look at the stars.
Most of the pictures that I took of the kids there faces were just mesmerized.

I love that Lincoln is holding Josh's hand.

This experiment was so cool. They used static electricity to pick up jello, sugar and salt.
And some of the kids ATE the jello.
The boys were so excited to give Jackson our present.
Jackson loves bugs so we gave him a bug vacuum. I have had many requests from the boys for one of their own. I love the look on Jackson's face. That is how you know you gave a good gift.


Kate did such a great job on the space cake. It was delicious!

The line for cake.
Hunter was throwing a balloon around and McKay was laughing so hard.
Pre balloon.
I have never seen him laugh so hard.

Apparently balloons are very funny. Or Hunter is, it is a toss up.

Star gazing.
Kate's brother brought his awesome telescope and let everyone look through it. It was so neat to see the craters on the moon.



Palmer loves anything about space, so he was very into this whole thing.
They got some neat stuff too.

After that they did fireworks.
McKay was up way past his bedtime. I didn't get a picture of their cute goodie bags, but Kate did an amazing job with this party.
