Birthday Party, Batman Style!

September is birthday month in our home! On Wednesday, we celebrated Molly's 9th birthday. On Saturday, we celebrated Hudson's 7th. This year, it was Hudson's turn to choose the birthday party theme: Superheros! ... with strong favoritism given to Batman. (Last year, Molly chose a safari theme.) We are thankful that the rain held off so that the kids could attack the piñata outdoors. The kids had a lot of fun! Special thanks goes to my mom who supplied superhero decorations and costumes and to our friends, Daniel and Cristina who made the piñata. (Photos were taken in our home and in our apartment courtyard.) 
The last photo came from our family celebration for Molly's birthday on Wednesday. I had fun making a Chutes & Ladder themed birthday birthday card for her ... though Hudson won when we played it.

But really, Saturday's birthday party was for both of them. As she herself said at the end of the day, "I love birthday parties!" It didn't matter which child was able to choose the theme ... but it will be very interesting to see what Molly picks for next year. I'm sure she's already starting to plan it. : )
