Kung-Fu/Ninja Birthday Party!!!!

I get asked all the time how do you tell the boys apart? There is never the question of are they fraternal twins because they look exactly alike. I see them as two different boys though that look completely different. I do have friends with twins and I honestly can not tell them apart so I understand some of the frustration of not being able to tell who is who! Another question I get asked a lot is if our boys have the same interests and unmistakeably they do(which might make it even harder to tell the differences)! I can say that Kung-fu or anything related to Martial Arts is on the top scale and has been since they were toddlers. We decided to throw a Kung-fu Birthday Party and to my surprise I enjoyed every minute of the preparation! Previous years I have dreaded and stressed and that makes throwing a party no fun. I think I lowered the amount of stress by planning months ahead. I also had Zach here and he kicked into high gear helping mode. He has always been here to help I have just finally learned to ask(go figure I thought all these years he could read my mind,lol)!

It just so happens that all the cousins like Ninja's too!! Here is the Ninja crew before cake and after the pinata!














Zach made these great headbands for the kids and I had to sport mine for the day! Thayne is my love bug I hope he stays this sweet and affectionate as he gets older!


Each year we buy a pinata online and each year the pinata's have been like steel to get open. One year even the guys couldn't bust the the pinata open. This years pinata went within minutes but I got a good shot of it on our table before it got destroyed! Note to self that the products online made in Mexico might not be as durable as those made in China! I was also proud of my Chinese paper lanterns they made for a good affect for the party!




Our Gi Cakes that Zach and I designed. I have to give Zach most of the credit. I baked the cakes and found the designs and he put them together for me!





We had a blast and I'm already starting to conjure up what next years theme will be! I really can't kid myself the kids always come up with their own theme,lol!
