Grant's 6th Birthday!

Today, Grant celebrated the birthday he had been talking about for more than a year. For some reason, the age 6 is more than just another year. It is more important than 7, 8 and 9 to Grant. He talks about the things he will finally be able to do when he is 6. Well, Bud, you made it so let's see all those cool things.

Rebecca put in some extra effort on this one, finding all of the Pokemon (a current Grant favorite) themed activities and decorations. The Pokeball gift was a sure hit and I think everyone walked away with a better understanding of what a Charmander is. A huge thank you to Rebecca for all of the planning for a 36 person event at the Children's Museum of Phoenix (another Grant favorite).

The kids started with Pokemon Bingo, followed by decorating a take-home Pokeball Rice Crispy treat shaped like a Pokeball. Then the cake. A balloon stomp was next with each balloon hiding a Pokemon temporary tattoo. With all of those kids popping balloons and screaming, the room must have sounded like a Poke-Robbery. It was great fun though and ended with each kid walking away with these really cool Pokeballs holding all of the traditional gift bag items. That was a nice touch and good find!

Happy Birthday Buddy!
