A morning of Lego's: Finn turns 6!

Saturday morning we celebrated Finn turning 6 with everything Lego's. The party was thankfully a total success! It was the first party I have hosted that some parents dropped off their kids, and I was worried I might end up with a gang of first graders gone wild! We kept the party moving with structured games and activities.

.. and then there was the Lego wall, nicely displayed here. I ended up with a blister (craft injury?) on my finger from punching all the holes, but the effect was nice.

 We played two games... Pin the Lego face on the Lego guy. The kids really enjoyed drawing their own Lego faces. And build your own Lego racer car which were then we raced then down a ramp. Both were hits!

Whew! It really was a nice little party. Honestly, I am just really so happy it's over. Two summer birthday parties down, one more to go...
