We let Tommy pick the theme - and he chose Superheros. I had fun looking online for ideas (thank you Pinterest). We made capes with each kids initial, I ordered masks from Etsy and we even rented a Superhero bounce house.
Power Nuggets and Power Puffs
Jello Jabs, Wonder Dogs and Watermelon water
Capes!
Bounce House
Tommy and Grace had a lot of fun at the party. Tommy pretty much ran around, jumped in the bounce house, grazed on the Chick-Fil-A nuggets and "Superman Jello" and ran around some more. Grace was a little more low key. She enjoyed playing on the sand and water table with Evelyn and playing with toys in the house.

We had 12 kids total for the party - and I think that was the perfect number.
After all the kids left, we gave Tommy his present from us - a big boy bike with training wheels and he opened all his presents from family and friends. He got superhero toys, skates (from Grammy and Pap-Pap), baseball bases (Aunt Christine & Uncle Eddie), pads (knee, wrist, elbow), water ball and a few other things.
Excited about the bike

Oh - and we did get a nice swing set for both kids a week before.
Happy Birthday Little Man.
P.S. I just wanted to mention a few of the cute things Tommy is doing right now...
- He uses the word "actually" all the time. "I did Amazing Athletes with Grace, actually."
- He loves to give Grace kisses and hugs at school (and she loves doing the same to him).
- He is BIG into sports - he LOVES playing baseball and he just started bouncing balls.
- He likes to drag his chair over to the kitchen anytime I cook so he can help me (so does Grace)
- He wants to take his shower in our bathroom.
- He still loves to dress like a cowboy - and always wants to wear his belt with the cowboy buckle from Gramma and Grampa.
