Let the Nerf Wars begin! Aiden wanted nothing more than to build some army fox holes and blast away all afternoon with Nerf guns. It was great fun and I think all the boys enjoyed every minute.

I found some instructions on how to make the guns
here, then personalized them with themed stickers for Aiden.
Then lastly the cake, I thought it might be fun for him to get to shoot at his cake. I made a target on top, washed up some Nerf darts loaded his gun, brought out his cake and told him the plan. Then I put on my protective eye wear and let him go at it!

| Aiden hearing what the plan was going to be |
I'd say it looks like he enjoyed the plan.
Unfortunately the darts didn't stick very well, I guess the frosting hardened up a bit. But he still said he had a great time getting to shoot at a cake!
Happy Birthday Aiden. It is so hard to believe you are EIGHT!
I was really looking forward to the party pictures! This looks like so much fun! It's many a boys dream! I love the marshmallow guns- very fun activity! You're so good at this stuff!
