Trenton’s 5th NinjaGo Birthday

We celebrated Trenton’s 5th Birthday this weekend. I cannot believe that my baby has turned 5 already. I feel like it was yesterday that we found out we were even pregnant and here we are almost about to have our 3rd precious little bundle! Trenton has been totally engulfed in NinjaGo the last several months. It started off with just wanting the Ninja lego figures to watching the series to now owning every NinjaGo toy they make! I had a blast creating everything for this party and he was so happy with it all! We did a smaller party this year at our house. I let Trenton decide who to invite for the most part. He really wanted to have a sleep over party, but with family being in town I decided maybe another weekend would be best for that. All day on Friday he kept asking “Is it party time?”. It was eating him up that I made the party at 3!

I typically have my sister or a friend make our party cakes, but this year I decided to order the edible cake image from Ebay and have Kroger make the cake. It was incredible!

I thought the Ninja Balloons were hilarious! (what few we had left after little brother turned the ceiling fan on and most of them popped)

These were suppose to be the skeleton army. I ran out of time to draw their faces on, but the kids understood and the Mommies thought they were delicious! They are brownies dipped in almond bark, pretzels and a marshmallow!

The masks were a big hit! The kids loved them and would keep switching out which NinjaGo character they wanted to be!

Enjoying some cake with friends!

I know Trenton had a great time and so did we! Thank you to everyone who could make it out! I know Easter Weekend is always so busy and we had a blast seeing everyone! We also celebrated Gene’s Big 30 the next day, but not sure how many pictures I have to share!

You did a great job on the party! wow! I am planning my sons 5th ninjago birthday party and want to know where you got the masks for the kids or did you make them? Also, how did you make the banner? Great idea with the balloons, they are perfect.

Thanks for the tips.

Waoo! Nice cake and theme introducing masks seems to be a unique one. I hope my idea of impressing my cousin in her spinster's party next week will be a huge success. Done with the bookings of one of the sparkling event venue Atlanta, dinner, drinks, Dj, decorations, party favors, cake and an impressive theme also.
