For Ashtons 8th birthday I was planning on taking all the kiddos to see a magic show, but because of the rain we had it at our house and a last minute mad scientist (aka Sara Young) came as our guest and shared some science tricks with the kids.
They created a density column with a variety of liquids...
They created snow (found these at the dollar store. All the grown ups agreed that they felt like the inside of a wet diaper. Gross!) The kids had fun having snow fight.
They blew up a balloon with baking soda and vinegar- abracadabra...
and made some alien slime with some borax, glue and water
Ashton requested brownies for his birthday treat. He does not like cake or cupcakes... he showed his own magic trick of putting out the candle with his fingers!
And of course Ashton loved opening his presents. He was all smiles the whole time! Looking back at these pictures reminded me why parents go to so much effort for birthday parties. The smile on his face is worth it all.
Happy b.day big eight year old! Can't believe my little man is getting baptized in two weeks! I am so proud of him and the good, big boy he is. Love you Ashton!
