We had a huge Birthday Bash for Jagger back on November 13th even though his real birthday was on Sunday, November 15th. In years past we have always had his birthday day celebrations with family and close friends at our house. This year he wanted to invite his friends from church and school. So, we threw a huge Scooby Doo bash of a birthday party! And boy was it FUN??? It was a blast! I think I was just as excited about it as Jagger was... and I have to admit I probably went a bit overboard, but it was so much fun planning and I knew he would absolutely love it! I couldn't wait for him to see all we had planned. We talked about it a lot, but he had no idea how BIG it was going to be until we were decorating and when daddy was setting up the BIG bouncy house...the look on his face was priceless! We are blessed with a wonderful church that has a gym that allowed us to have enough room for everyone and everything.
It was a Scooby-Dooby-Doo of a time for a 5yr old Birthday!!!!

Pinata time!
(You know I really don't get it....if you think about it...you pick out your favorite character that you love so very much and then you beat it with a stick! Seriously???)
Mummy Time!!!
Jenna loves the laundry basket.
Then she proceeded to tell me she was sleeping:)
Then I turn around and she has stripped off her p.j.'s and just had her diaper and onsie on...
Then I turn around and she has gotten my socks out of the basket, put them on, and then put her shoes on...and mind I say...she had them on the right feet! So smart!!!!
She was so proud of herself and wore them around the house forever that afternoon.
Our kids love pancakes...so just about every Saturday morning that is what we eat.
The boys had so much fun playing!
Cousin Jonathon "played" checker with Jenna and Keegan...thanks cousin Jonathon!
The little girls played with the doll house and all of it's accessories. This was Jennifer's (Keegan's mom, my cousin) dollhouse when she was little....we played with it when we were little and now our little girls are!!!
Playing at the table with Grandpa.
Time to eat!
Us at the McBride Thanksgiving dinner
Our church is adding a pavilion out back that will be a great picnic area and a storage area at one end for outside mowing equipment, etc... Dad and several others have been helping to build the pavilion and this weekend it was time to set the truss' since the concrete floor and wall posts were finished. Mom and I helped to cook lunch for them that day and the kids enjoyed watching the big crane work lifting the huge truss' up to the top of the rafters.
Jenna didn't like the slide which really surprised us!
Jagger of course loved it!
Earlier in the week Uncle James and Aunt Kacey brought over Jagger's gift. It was a neat hot wheels race track that the cars end up in water and change colors...Jagger loved it! Thank you!
Jagger and Jerry got matching UofL shirst for their b'day as well.
It was a wonderful Birthday night and one that I hope Jagger always remembers!
