No Admittance - Except on Party Business

Asher Turns 5
 
 
I always let the kids pick the theme for their party.  This year Asher really wanted a hobbit birthday party.   For those of you that are unfamiliar, a hobbit is a character in J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings series.   Our family is a big fan of the books and movies.  The only problem is most of Asher's friends are girls.   After sending out the invitation I had to explain the theme to most of our guests.  Asher requested lots of food, a Smaug cake, and 2 games.  It was so windy that evening at the park we were unable to play either of his games.  One was throwing insects into Shelobs' web and the other was wrapping a child up in silk (toilet paper), like Frodo.  He was a little disappointed we didn't play the games.  I think he still had a fun time.  This was one of my favorite parties to plan.  Here are a few pictures of the evening!  
 
 
Smaug the dragon cake!

Our Elvish Bread
Hobbits eat 7 meals a day - this party was all about the food!
Cheese Board
It is not a birthday without these two acting like hams!

Our great friends that joined us to celebrate Asher's birthday!
