Kazzy and Coleman love Scooby-Doo . . . so it was fun to throw a birthday party for the both of them with this theme in mind.

A Scooby Doo party wouldn’t be complete without Shaggy and Scooby’s favorite food. . . PIZZA. Dapne, is that lipstick on your face, or pizza sauce? Either way, you're still beautiful!
Once the gang and all their scary guests were full, it was time to solve a mystery. After following the trail of bones that led to a ghost, the gang hunted for ghosts upstairs and down. Kazzy’s favorite part of the hunt was finding clues at the neighbor’s house . . . which then led to hunting for spiders and then FINALLY catching those bad guys (Grandpa Bringhurst and Grandpa Finch) who were trying to scare away all the kids so they could eat all the cake and ice cream. When they saw how cool the cake was they had to come up with a plan to scare off all those kids.

It would have worked to if it wasn’t for that medaling dog and the rest of his gang. Kazzy really wanted to be able to pull of the mask of the bad guys (like they do in the cartoon), but in the end both Kaz and Cole were too scared of the bad guys to even get close. Shaggy (Dad) was holding Scooby (Ty Ty) and she was scared to death… she had the kung-foo grip around Shaggy’s neck nearly choking him out.

The piñata was kind of a let down for some of the kids . . . the birthday kids got a chance to take a swing at the ugly green witch, and then a couple kids after that and then it was over for the poor little piñata with a short life. After a big blow from Kennedy the piñata was done. It was kind of a let down, but at least the candy was good.


Last year was the first of a new birthday tradition we started. . . One special chair where the birthday kid sits and one special chair for the giver. Instead of presents flying, it’s fun for the giver and more meaningful and memorable for the birthday boy/girl who receives the present. You actually know who gave you what, what a concept! Kazzy and Cole both got to sit on the Birthday chair together and remarkably, they didn’t even fight or push each other off. It’s so fun to get presents . . . Thanks everyone for all the thoughtful gifts. We love you!!

When they weren’t wearing them as hats on their heads, he kids all got to eat their ice cream and cake out of a dog bowl. After all the hard work that went into making the cake, it was difficult to dig in and eat it up. For weeks the kids and I have been searching for Scooby-Doo items for the big party. It was a fun way to end the party by letting all the kids pick a wrapped Scooby-Doo present from the mantel . . . real live Scooby snacks and fruit snacks, coloring books and band aids left a smile on everyone’s face. It was an unforgettable party . . . thanks to all who came and supported the birthday kids.
