Since they are always singing and asking us to sing the "Rainbow song", we decided to do a Rainbow theme birthday party. We had the party at my parents house and had lots of rainbow themed snacks while we swam. The kids had a blast and it turned out really cute! My friend Beverly took pictures and Katie Madsen did the banner and invitations. It all turned out perfect!! There were a lot of cute pics, so it was hard for me to edit. But here is a smattering of the fun. As usual, Zeke was too excited to hold still for a pic. But Beverly managed to get a few cut pics of him while he played!

| The food table. |
The full menu was a fruit tray, veggie platter, Trix Treats (Trix in stead of Rice Krispies), Colors Goldfish Crackers , Cupcakes, Marshmallow kabobs, Mini Corn dogs, 12 layer Jello-o and Skittles, Twizzlers, M&M's, Lollipops, and Rolos (you need a pot of gold, right?) to add some more sugar to the already sugar-heavy list. Awesome. I might have gone into a sugar coma. Then at the last minute, Jake informed me he was making a rainbow cake. It was amazing. He may do his own post on it later.

 |
| After giving each kids a turn (Ethan was a champ!) Daddy helped Zeke break it open. |
 |
| Hazel had no interest. |
 |
| But we helped her get some candy any way we could. |
 |
| She eventually got the hang of it. |
 |
| Zeke loved his new trains. And the pinata carnage. |
Thanks to everyone who helped out and all the friend who came! We all had a blast!
So cute, and you can never have too much sugar at a birthday party.
