Batman Party - Fisher and Hunter are 4

October 2, 2013

Fisher and Hunter turned 4!  So a Batman Party was in order.

I went downstairs to get something before the kids started showing up and came upstairs to Hunter sound asleep.  He NEVER falls asleep on his own, let alone outside of his bed!  So I let me sleep a minute......

The kids gathered in the Bat Cave (AKA the kitchen).

Here is Jason and Soren coloring Gotham City.

Once everyone arrived the kids gathered for instruction. They each were given a bat cape but had to earn the bat mask to become a true batman. All bat masks had to be earned by going through "Bat Training".

They all received a bat cape and then had to follow the bat trail to the first "Bat Training" site.

The first test in the "Bat Training" exercise was strength trainning.

The second exercise in "Bat Training" was to test their mighty muscles.  

The test was to see how far they could push the enormous bean-bag-boulder.

 They did a pretty good job all together.  The bean-bag-boulder was heavy!

Next was to identify team mates.  

We played a game of Batman-Batman-Robin.  

This is a spin off Duck-Duck-Goose.  This was hilarious.

Once our team mates were identified we had to study and identify the enemies.

More than half way through "Bat Training"....

Mason Birch, Tanner Blackburn, Jason Christiansen, Jeff hart, Fisher, Hunter, 

Justin, Keegan Worthen, Wyatt Page, and Soren Christiansen down in front.

Hunter let us put his cape on!

"Bat Training" resumed  outside... fighting skills on the tramp...

gazing over the city from the highest spot....

Hunter had to get a little Mickey Mouse in the mix of training.  

My mom and Kristal were awesome Hunter-Helpers!

The final test to pass "Bat Training" is thwarting the enemy.

This is where they gained their secret weapon......

silly string......

Take aim!!

Hunter and Fisher got to take the first shot!

 All of the kids wanted a turn to hit the Joker!

Silly string and thwarting the enemies was a BIG hit!  I think they completed "Bat Training" with flying colors and earned their bat mask for sure!

We finished up with presents and treats.

and treats......chocolate covered donuts of course!

Tanner liked the bat mask the most, I think.  Look at that cute chocolate face.

 That smile says it all!  They had fun!  Cute little Jeff Hart.

My little 4-year-old BATMANs!  

Hunter and Fisher

A big thanks to Rach for helping with ""Bat Training" and taking all the fabulous pictures!
