Tyson's backwards birthday party

Ty had a backwards birthday party this year to celebrate turning 8! We sent out invites that were written backwards so that you had to read them in the mirror....
We told all the kids to wear there clothes backwards to come for some "crazy, mixed up backwards fun that would leave you smiling...or was it frowning?" All the kids that came loved it and all showed up with shirts on backwards!
We hung balloons from the ceiling and had signs that said "NOSYT YADHTRIB YPPAH". We served cupcakes first, upside down on the plates. We had dinner last {pizza}...
and jumped in the moonwalk most of the time. We played backwards charades where all the kids acted out the thing and one kid guessed! It was alot of fun! We had a great time!!!
Then their take home treat was this...

and it was filled with candy bars and fruit snacks.

5 chatted at me:

What a cute idea!!! I think I might have to "borrow" it sometime. Sorry we missed Tyson's baptism. We were recovering from a triple sleep-over.

I agree with Emily...I may have to copy this. Although both boys are dead set on doing BEN 10 parties. Hmmmm...this is so cool!
