Monster Hunt Birthday Crew


Photo-A-Day #3473

Our house was invaded by pint-sized Monster Hunters today. The theme of Eva’s party was Backyard Monster Hunt. This is something that Eva and I came up with on our own then we posted it to Cooper and Kid and the Time to Play Site. We also posted about it on this blog.

When the kids arrived they were given a piece of cardboard. They were tasked with designing a new Monster for the Monster Hunt. When the kids were done I took a photo of each of them with their monsters. We intended to go out tot he yard and hunt the monsters with some Nerf Blasters. Each kid received a Nerf Blaster and 6 foam darts then they were to be unleashed upon the monsters in the back yard. Unfortunately it had rained, hard all morning. The yard would be a muddy mess. We decided to roll with it like we did yesterday.

We prepared by setting up a place for the kids to play with the Monster 500 toys. We also set up stations to play some old school and new school board games. I picked up a balloon pop game and a foam creature craft. I was also going to set up a make your own crayons station. We might save that one for Andrew’s birthday.

Photo-A-Day #3440

Right before the kids went up for their tubbies tonight I noticed that the sky looked awesome so I wanted to take some photos of the kids. I just haven’t been able to figure out how to get a great sky and a well lit set of kids. I opted for the well lit kids on this one. They played around like little silly kiddos and did all sorts of poses. Andrew copying everything that Eva did. Such a cute little pair of nuts.
