Kim Kardashian and ex-husband Kanye West share four children: North, Saint, Chicago, and Psalm. There is absolutely no doubt that these kids are growing up in the lap of luxury—so much so that their birthday celebrations are epic to say the least. For example, their eldest son, Saint West celebrated his 8th birthday with a soccer-themed birthday party that a fútbol fan of any age would appreciate.

His birthday was on December 5, which was a weekday, so his famous mommy waited until the weekend to host his party. You won’t believe the attention to detail that went into planning the celebration. Check out some of the behind-the-scenes footage Kim shared.
Saint likes soccer, but he doesn't like cake.
He plays soccer and is a huge fan of the game. His mom even took him on an international soccer tour recently with friends, so it makes sense that his birthday party was soccer themed. But guess what? Saint does not like cake.
Instead of cake, there was a big chocolate soccer ball.
Saint got to smash a large soccer ball, which was filled with little soccer balls. “Fun fact–Saint hates cake so @butterloveandhardwork made an all chocolate soccer ball instead of a cake! The kids loved it!” Kim shared.
How cute are these drink balls?
Drinks were served in little round soccer ball shaped containers with straws. So freakin' cute. Hopefully, the kids will reuse them so they don't go straight to the landfill.
Was there food?
You know it! The event was catered by Chef Khristianne, who BTW also catered Tatum Thompson's first birthday party. Tatum is Khloé Kardashian's son that she shares with Tristan Thompson.
All the food was so on-theme.
It was like stadium food, but so much better and way fresher. I'm loving the fruit skewers, which are always a hit with kids. These were topped with little soccer ball decorations. Perfect grab-and-go snacks.
Soccer ball quesadillas!
What a clever idea! Somehow, Chef K created mini quesadillas that looked like soccer balls. Where did she get a comal or grill that makes those markings? Maybe she used a waffle maker with that design. Whatever she used, they look great.
There were giant inflatables!
Not just any kind of inflatables either. They were soccer-themed inflatables, of course, because that was the goal. Do you see what I did there? I think I nailed that pun. ¡Goooooooaaal!
This inflatable looks interactive.
See those holes in the on the back wall? They look like they can be used for some kind of game. Like maybe shooting balls into the holes or something along those lines.
Target practice on giant inflatables!
The front of this inflatable looks like a giant dart board and the back is emblazoned with a ginormous soccer ball. Who knew inflatables came with so many themed options? Must be kinda pricey to rent so many.
And party favors?
“We had special kits made,” Kim shared on a video that showed Adidas uniforms hanging from a rack. The custom soccer jerseys read “Best in the West” on the front and “Saint” on the back. They all had the number 8 in honor of Saint's age.
Kim can’t get over how quickly Saint is growing up.
“My twin Sainto! How are you 8 years old already! I just love you so so so much!” Kim captioned a series of photos and videos she posted to Instagram of her eldest son. There’s even a picture of him as a baby.
