For the party portion, as usual Megan went overboard on the planning, but the kids had a lot of fun. We invited all of Payton's cousins to come, so we had kids ranging in ages 0-9 years. 
When they first got there we had a craft table set up for thekids to make their own monster. They were quite creative and we had some very cute monsters in the end.
After they were done they could go over to Marcus and get a snow cone (just like Mike and Sulley had in the Himalaya's)! Of course this was a huge hit, the kids and adults were begging for seconds.
Next we played pin the eye on Mike. It was pretty fun to watch the kids blindly try to figure out where it went. Ren got his eye to closest.
Then we brought out The Cake! Payton was very excited when he say it and thought it was pretty cool. After we sang to him he took a chunk out of the corner of it, it was pretty funny. We are discovering that he is not so much into the cake as he is the ice cream, but he did like pulling the fondant off and just eating that.
Last but not least we opened presents. Megan tried to keep Payton from being swarmed by the other kids as he opened each present by letting only the people giving the gift come to him. They all sat in a circle really well.
A couple of the cards Payton got played music when you opened it. He thought it was so cool that he walked around the entire circle and held it each kids ear so they could hear it. It was so dang cute!Overall Payton had an awesome birthday and he had lots of fun. Thanks to all the family that came and for all the great gifts. We may need to move into a bigger house so we can fit them all, but Payton sure does love them! :)
