Cowboy Up!

Saturday, May 15, 2010

When Seth returned from Father and Sons, he rested up a bit, dressed up a bit, and headed to a birthday party. The party was for Jordan on his t-ball team and was held at McKee Ranch. When the guests arrived, they were given pails of carrots to feed the horses. Seth was too scared so I fed most of them or he threw the carrots into their stalls.

There were a lot of fun things to play on, including a merry-go-round and this really cool tire swing. Riding this swings was Seth's favorite part of the whole party.

Next the kids took turns riding this pony. Seth hopped right on and enjoyed the ride. Dinner was served. The kids were called over by one of those triangles. There were lots of good things to eat including hot dogs, fried chicken, and watermelon.

After dinner was a hay ride. This little trailer was attached to a tractor and the kids were driven around a large yard. One of the tires broke and that made for a bumpy ride. Notice none of the other kids were dressed up. I love that Seth took the Cowboy theme seriously - I suggested he wear his boots, but the rest of his outfit was all him.

The party ended with the kids trying out using a lasso, a game of musical chairs, and a sheet cake with lots of plastic cowboy toys on top (I could have cried - an awesome party deserved an awesome cake). This was one of the coolest parties any of my kids have been to. Seth loved his day as a real cowboy.

  1. Seth is too cute! I am confused though...why is he the only one dressed up? That is something I would do.
