Reid's 8th Birthday. {get the bait, Reid is eight}

…..
For Reid's birthday this year, he wanted to have an all boys sleepover at the lake house. I thought this was a great idea, because I had already thought of a super cute birthday theme: "Get the Bait, Reid is 8!" Reid's absolute favorite thing to do is to fish, so this was the perfect party for him! A lady in OKC that I have used the past few years for our birthday cakes made the cake for us and it turned out amazing! I could not believe how real the bass looked! Reid (as well as the other boys) were super impressed! And it tasted great too!

 I picked up nine boys from Grove after school on the Friday of his birthday, and then Jett and Grayson met us out at the lake later on that evening. The boys jumped on the trampoline, played football, played on the swing set, went fishing, went tubing, explored in the woods, made a campfire, and stayed up late watching movies. It was the ultimate boy birthday! 
…..
 He has really gotten a lot taller this year, and is actually taller than his cousin Jett at this point!
….. 
 I had to get several pictures of the cake because it was so cute!
…..
 She also made some fishing themed sugar cookies as well!
…..
 The boys had a blast sticking the candles into the back of the fish!

 Grandma Lucy made chocolate cupcakes and I put bobbers on the top of them! I was so proud with how the whole fishing theme turned out!
…..
Trying to get eight year-old boys to take a serious picture was nearly impossible! 
…..
Classic 8 Year Olds = Perfection!

Jeb and I didn't get much sleep, but it was definitely a birthday party for the memory books! Hopefully the kids will take a break for a few years before they have any more birthday sleepovers!
