Ninjas are Deadly and Silent...

Our biggest boy celebrated a big birthday yesterday.  It's hard to believe our New Year's baby is a whopping six years old!  Before we know it he will be growing whiskers and asking to borrow the car... 

Our newly minted six-year-old requested a ninja themed birthday, largely influenced by this song.  Ben and I put our heads together and created some fairly sweet cupcakes.  (Check out the throwing stars!) 


We also took the kids out for "ninja food".  (Yes.  Our children actually ate the octopi.  They gobbled them up so quickly, in fact, I hardly even had a taste.)


We returned home from the restaurant to a low-key party with family. Our birthday boy enjoyed a terrific day!

Awesome cupcakes! I am completely impressed how your kids try all sorts of foods! What is your secret to avoiding picky eaters?

Yeah, so I'm going to need to know how you entice your kids to eat ANYTHING! Perhaps you should write a book?!
