ELVIS IS ALIVE, and he turned 5!

Without further ado...the wild and crazy and wonderfully entertaining Luke McGee! For Luke's 5th Birthday he wanted a show that was all about himself as Elvis. Trust me when I say this kid can rock! Throw on your bobby socks and tie back that hair turning 5 is an experience all it's own. 

Luke's invite had a little flair and a lot of ginger.
Luke's glowing Elvis sign was made from a recycled TV box, spray paint and some old Christmas lights. Voila! Instant fame.
The party spread moved indoors after a slight rain delay, but all worked out fine.
Gold framed glasses adorned with sideburns 
'Graceland' cupcakes made by Katelyn Schloesser. Chocolate, peanut butter and banana of course. 

We do love a good theme.
and sometimes take it to extremes.

Let the festivities begin!
Treats and noisemakers for all.
Followed by some light entertainment.
and more treats.
Did I mention strawberry floats with whip cream and a cherry?
Next comes the song and dance.
accompaniment? 
What Elvis show would be complete without a wailing girl? I know a little too authentic right?
Grandpa Darrell showing the kids how to wear their shades.
Little Elvis with his perma-grin.
Sideburns run in the family.
What party would be complete without a pinata?
Thank you all, thank you very much.
