Maryn's 5th Birthday

Maryn had a terrific 5th birthday. She had her party and all of the details planned out months in advance. She wanted a friend party at Chuck E Cheese with puppy cupcakes and puppy invitations! We typically have a special dinner on their birthday as well that we invite the grandparents to but she decided that she wanted the grandparents at Chuck E Cheese with her and her friends.... they would have more fun that way :) The party was a lot of fun and the kids were really good. Josh and I were exhausted by the end of it, but Maryn was glowing. That's what being a kid is all about!

Let the chaos begin! All those tickets flying everywhere!! She was loving it!


Extreme fun in the Ticket Blaster! I don't think I've laughed that hard in months. She was jumping up and down and trying so hard! So fun!
