The toughest birthday of the year - Christmas Day - comes with a side benefit in our family... a full-blown, day-of-your-own half birthday party every June. This was a great one - an astronaut party - where October had the kids make up their own jet packs. We supplied the spray-painted boxes with plastic cups on the bottom for jets and wide ribbons for shoulder straps, and the kids added decorations, names, and other customizations. Our great friend Mandy made the rocket cake, and the kids washed it down (kind of) with freeze-dried astronaut ice cream. Oh, and don't forget the home-made paper mache asteroid pinata!
