Cole's 6th birthday party

Cole's 6th birthday was also at the Placer Nature Center. I can't say enough how wonderful this center is!  The kids have a blast every time they are there.  Both parties were geared towards the kids theme and were totally different from each other!




The ladies at the Nature Center made the BEST center pieces for the party!  How great are these dinosaurs?!?!


At the Nature Center they provide glass plates, glasses, and cloth napkins!  We are required to carry out all trash and they will keep food that can be composted.





Painting rocks


Going on the long nature hike in search of snake skins, bugs and of course staying out of the poison oak!


Checking out deer bones


The party crew!




Mike and  I of course went a little insane (as usual) with the cupcakes.  This is the 3rd year Cole has had a dinosaur themed birthday party to we needed to make something a little different.  I found these cupcakes on Pinterest (of course) and ordered fondant.  I made the cupcakes and frosted them Friday morning and then Friday night Mike and I made these guys.  We started out with T'Rex's but those were a bit of a problem so we went with 30 stegosaurus's and 5 T'Rex's.  The kids went crazy when they saw the cupcakes!  (4th birthday T-Rex cake) (3rd birthday Legoman cake)









Cole opening his gifts.  I love how the kids crowed around to check it all out!!





Sweet Alice.


We've made some awesome friends this year!  Cameron and Cole are best buddies at school!
