We now have a FIVE-YEAR OLD at our house. Older, wiser and suddenly able to do things that he "couldn't do when he was four...!" We celebrated the big day with a K-State football themed party at our house with family and close friends. All stemming from the fact that the weekend before we were able to go to a game as a family. Ben is part of the Jr. Wildcat club that KSU athletics offers so he was able to meet Willie the Wildcat and even walk around the field pre-game... what a treat for an almost five-year old!
And since we have PLENTY of K-State gear, pulling together a K-State football party was pretty easy. Decorations were mostly things we already had around the house for our YEARS of being faithful Wildcat fans. I also put together a picture garland of Ben in all of his K-State gear over the last five years...including the day he was born!
We decided to have the party just two hours before the K-State game would be on and served game day food...burgers, brats, chips and dip, little smokies, etc... And of course, a KSU football cake and cupcakes with player numbers on them (corresponding to the kids' ages!)
Everyone had a great time but unfortunately our Cats could not pull off a win that night! We still cheered our hardest!
And here are some pictures of our birthday boy over the years...my how he's grown!!!
Happy Birthday to the biggest K-State fan there is!
