Andrew's 3rd Birthday Party

This little dude had a super fun Paw Patrol themed party to celebrate his 3rd birthday...

Andrew Brooks, 3 years old

 It was a beautiful, sunny, hot day... perfect for a backyard party with friends! We had his party on the Wednesday before his real birthday, because it was a school holiday and we could invite all our friends and their siblings to join us for the fun ;)

Pretty sure the trampoline manual says to avoid this...luckily, we had only a few boo boos.

Lindsay and one of her besties, Teagan. Andrew's friend Billy from church.

The party was themed Paw Patrol (no surprise here!) and we picked up some fun masks... Chase, Rubble and Marshall... Can you guess which one is Drew?

 We had two kids tables and one Mom/Grandma table...

 The "big kids" opted to sit around the fire pit and hang out...

 We had chips n' dip, fruit salad, Pup-a-Roni pizza and Pup Cakes...

 After lunch we set up a Paw Patrol themed obstacle course with stuff from around the house...

Waiting in line to do the obstacle course!

 Each station was for a character...

Andrew and Grammie sorting paper and plastic for Rocky

Digging in the sand box for Rubble...

Using a squirter to hose down the plastic fire cups for Marshall... 

Collecting fish in the water table for Zuma, and behind was running through cones for Chase.

The big kids were pretty competitive, and it was fun watching the little guys and girls find their favorite station and just hang out there. LOL.

Andrew chose a sprinkle cupcake for his candle

 We sang to him and he blew out his candle...

 We also had Marshall pinata we hung from our big old tree... Thankfully it was a pull-string pinata, not one that requires a bat and blindfold. That would be a recipe for disaster with as many kids as we had there!

Pull a string.. fruit snacks come out!

 They collected fruit snacks and put them in bags to take home... we were all cracking up when the pinata malfunctioned and instead of the belly, the contents came out the rear end of Marshall. LOL.

 Our sweet friends were so generous, and Andrew had lots of helpers to help him open his presents ;)

Thanks for my Paw Patrol Blanket Grams!
