HULK Smash!

Tripp turned 5! He is getting so old (which does not mean I'm getting old;). He wanted a Hulk party and this is what he got:
 I found out that Tripp is an excellent pinata maker. He helped me make the pinata all week and then helped decorate it. I also made Tripp's shirt. But I made the mistake of making only one which upset my Deko, so I had to make another one for him. I got the idea here. 
Isn't our Hulk scary?
 We had pizza, GREEN salad, GREEN grapes, GREEN fluff, and of course HULK punch (Sprite, limes, and lime sherbet). It was hot! We saw lots of red faces during the party. We had also colored some villain pictures and put them on stakes and gave the kids water guns to "shoot the bad guys." They had fun with that but I didn't get any pics of it:( They also had a water balloon fight that I missed as well. But I heard a lot of balloons hit faces and then popped on the ground.
 And the highlight of the party was wearing Hulk masks and fists to beat the pinata. Everyone loved this part! Not gonna lie, I really wanted to punch it too. I got the idea for the masks here. I cut them out and my friend sewed them for me because she is awesome and I don't have a sewing machine.

 Diving in to get all that candy! Found out that chocolate in a pinata on a hot day was NOT a good idea.
 It was near impossible to take a pic of these crazy Hulks. This was the best I could do:
Got to love the little man in front with his Hulk mask inside out
 Aren't they good posers?
Pretty Intense
 
 Tripp received a lot of fun presents
 This pic is blurry but this is what was left of the cupcakes. Didn't get a pic of that either. Can you tell I'm not the best photographer? They are supposed to look like little Hulks and we served them with GREEN mint brownie ice cream. I got the idea for the cupcakes here. 
Tripp told me it was the best birthday ever. So I guess we did alright. We might be seeing this party again since Deko was super jealous the whole time and says he wants a Hulk birthday too. We shall see...
