One of Cole's new favorite shows on TV is Wipeout. His love for the show grew as he and Daddy watched it on Tuesday evenings last summer/fall while I was at my Bible Study. Listening to his sweet laugh as contestants fall, slip, jump, and well. . . wipeout. . . is contagious.
The show stopped running for a short time and we all awaited the new premier "Winter Wipeout" on January 6. To mark this special event, we decided to have a Wipeout party. Since Christmas, Cole's been counting down to this date - anticipating a fun night. When he awoke yesterday and looked at his calendar, he exclaimed "Tonight's our Wipeout Party. . . YAY!!" Of course we couldn't disappoint. . . with his birthday a mere month before, he remembered how to party and wouldn't be satisfied without a few necessities. A homemade banner, balloons, friends, family, grilled dinner (porkchops, cowboy beans, corn-on-the-cob, garlic bread), party blowers, and cupcakes made for a fun night. And of course the highlight - Winter Wipeout - didn't disappoint. . . it was one of the funniest episodes we've seen by far! I'm sure chiropractors everywhere love it as well. Those contestants surely need major adjustments after leaving the show!

I had another dessert in mind for the evening, but Cole insisted on cupcakes. Thanks Gigi for helping to finish ice and decorate!

Maybe I should DVR that show for Noah. We'll give a go. :)
haha looks like fun, so sad we missed it! We watched bits and pieces of it out here and were thinking about yall! :)
We love that show, too. Good idea for the party! I have been in such a funk lately about doing things like that....well, now that I think of it, I wouldn't have anyone to invite to a party anyway. ha! (or boo-hoo, whichever emotion comes first).
COle will remember these things for years to come!! Precious.
