I am trying to think of party ideas and am open to suggestions. Brandon has all older cousins (5-10yrs).
So far I have:
-bounce house- DH can get one for a deal, or so he says
-piniata (I even found one with his theme: John Deere)
-Hay ride with the tractor and trailer (although I dislike using our hay for this- expensive)
-Pony/horse rides
-Bob for apples- is this only a fall thing?

I need some more suggestions/ideas?? I am not crazy about all of the above.

I think you're off to a great start! It sounds like you have activities planned out to keep them busy (pinata, apples, hayride, pony ride, bounce house) and I don't think you need to add much more to that. You'll still have to find time to do cake/ice cream (and food if you serve food at your parties) plus open presents.

Which part of what you mentioned aren't you crazy about? I say definitely keep the bounce house, the kids will LOVE that! I'd scrap the bobbing for apples, if anything... because there is no way my kids would do that. Plus you'd have to have some pretty small apples for the younger kids, since they have smaller mouths.
