Aidan's 5th Birthday Bash

The theme chosen by our soon-to-be 5 yr. old was Spider-man!!! He invited 7 guests as well as his Grandad, Aunt Katie (which included Charis), Uncle Sean, and of course their dog, Aussie! Pin the mask on Spider-man!Katie and I decorated using the streamers in a non-traditional way - we laced them across the door and also hung black ones completely over the doorway where the guests first entered. Above the table we hung a giant web (batting) and inserted all sorts of creepy crawlies. Hanging from the light fixture were more bugs and of course a spider.Our first project - decorating the goody bags as all of the guests arrived!I think Aidan did a fabulous job all by himself!Uncle Sean, Aidan, and Aunt Katie
He wanted them to come so badly that he was willing to give them one of his seven allotted guests invitations, and he also had to be sure there would be a place for them at the table. I assured him the adults could stand up and eat.
Aidan and Grandad Opening presents!
Patrick was the villain and the children used silly string to capture him. The only problem being that some of the kids were not strong enough to push the button on their can, so Patrick had to "help" them web him.Blowing out the candles. Can you see the different colored flames? Last but not least, the spidey pinata!!!!
