Connor's 5th Birthday Party

We had a "Diego Water Jungle Party" for Connor's 5th Birthday. We had a slip n' slide, 2 sprayer pools with slides, water balloons, dump buckets, water guns, water ball sling shots and a Diego pinata. The kids had a blast and I think the parents enjoyed seeing their kids have fun. It was a hot day but not the hottest we've seen, thankfully. We had the misters and fountain going and lots of water flying in the air to help cool things off. We didn't anticipate where all this water would go so we had some puddles- which of course the kids readily jumped into as well.


Slip n' slide fun


Going for the candy from the broken pinata


We had a rocky mountain cake that we added Diego, Dora and Boots figures to. We had ice cream and otter pops (I think these were more popular!).


There were tons of presents and the kids were all so excited for Connor to open them that many were opened without us knowing who they were from!


One excited guest raided Connor's room for a sword. Arrgghh, pirates. I think that'll be the next party's theme.

Thank you to everyone that came to the party and made this a special day for Connor!!

What a birthday bash! Very "descriptive" photos. I like the candid ones that show what it was actually like to be there. Happy (very late) birthday, Connor!
