Spongemama Squarepants and Trent's "I'm Ready" 18 party!

Trent thought he was going to just have a family dinner for his birthday... but Spongemama and the fam did a little planning to make his 18th a little more exciting. Since Trent is the last kid... I wanted to do a kid party like when everyone was young. Occassionally I would dress up for these things so... I made a Spongemama appearance. And why did we pick a Spongebob theme you might wonder?... Let's just say Trent is a Spongebob fan! Well... I like Spongebob too... and so do "some" of the fam as well. Here are some highlights:

The hostess... Spongemama... I'm ready!

Welcome sign

Everything is festive...

Spongebob krispie treats and Patrick Star sugar cookies made by Kristin. Aren't they so cute?!? They were way yummy too!

Trent picked the menu... Chicken parmesean and spaghetti!

Table for two!

Playing the "Who's the most like Spongebob" game. People had to vote on family members that had characteristics or features like Spongebob... oh what an honor to be a winner!

One of the lucky winners and her great prize package. Erin won for hands and smile most like Spongebob.

Trent was showered with Spongebob stuff... I didn't even know Spongebob had a greats hits CD!

Awwww.... how cute!

Wow... that box of fruit snacks came with a bonus!

The smoke alarm didn't even go off after blowing out all those candles... no that's not a cake... It's candles on top of magic cookie bars... one of Trent's favorites!

So what does it feel like to have all my kids be... well ... adults now?!?... Hmmm ... let me think...


How cute.. this is a pic of the kids right before Brandon left and Dustin was still in Afghanistan...
When Dustin was visiting... whoa... getting a little silly!

Well... it didn't take too much thought... ya know what... kids will always be kids! It's absolutely GREAT to be their mom!
