Colton's Paw Patrol Party

Colton turned 3!  He is really into Paw Patrol and had a blast at his party.  Just like Dylan's Spiderman party, we had to turn an outdoor party into an indoor party due to a bad thunderstorm.  It was loud and crazy with 12 kids and their parents, but really fun.  
The cupcakes/favors:
 Puppy chow:

 Yes, those are bone shaped sandwiches in a real dog bowl:

 Singing to the birthday boy:



Yup, that's Ty "The Cowboy" Taylor in the background.  He came from roping in Oklahoma to hang out with us at the party and go to Top Golf that night:



 All the kiddos and their Paw Patrol puppies:
 I forgot to get pictures of the kids building dog houses for stuffed animal dogs using foam blocks, and using "poop scoopers" (grabbers) to pick up tootsie roll "poop" off of the putting green grass into "poop bags". I live in a house with all boys.  I embraced the potty humor they love so much for that activity.  Here are the kids eating Cocoa Puff "dog food" out of dog bowls.  It took a day or two before I stopped finding cereal in random places due to a few spills:




Colton was so excited to put on the Captain America costume from G-ma.  Look at those muscles:
Happy 3rd birthday to my energetic, bright-eyed, expressive, cuddly, puppy-loving, cap gun shooting, avid sports fan, little super hero Colton!  Love my little sidekick!
The next day was Mother's Day.  It started off rough with the dreaded discovery our 4th round of fertility drugs failed.  I hate feeling this crappy and emotional without anything to show for it...and no end in sight.  Bah.  But then the day got better when Dylan came running into my room saying, "Mom, mom!!!  I made you this at school to wear to church!!!"  I rocked the noodle necklace, thankyouverymuch.  Next year I want the noodle earrings to match.
