We decided that we would have what I like to call a “low key” birthday party this year. Which simply means that the MONTHS of planning, making, crafting and baking are cut out…
Joshua was allowed to invite two friends over for the night, bowling the next day then home. Fool proof plan, right? HAHAHA! NO! I was lucky however, that the kids didn’t fight, they played nicely, and even included Jenna in on some of the fun (which was super sweet).
The night started out great, calm, cool and collective…
Joshua invited 2 boys over, notice only one is in the picture above, this is what happened about 20 min after the second friend showed up…
Now mind you, in Joshua’s 9 years of life, nothing I repeat NOTHING has ever gotten broken. Go figure! :)
We all quickly got over this accident and had a great evening. Hey, it adds character. My house now looks LIVED in, as if it needed help!
The boys played in Jenna’s house more than she did!! (only because she couldn't fit with all of them crammed in there) They were sooo embarrassed when they realized that I was taking pictures of them! If only I could show the “girlfriends”, or maybe I’ll save that for junior high/high school :)
They pretended like Jenna was “BABYZILLA”.
The next day, on Joshua’s Birthday Libby Jo, “Coach Kidd” and I took the boys bowling. They had a great time! And apparently I suck worse than I thought. Embarrassing! The kids even beat me! :)
Sean, Joshua & Elishua, ready to bowl!
Joshua and Libby Jo
Happy Birthday Big 9 Year Old!!!!!!
Coach was nice enough to get Joshua not one, not two…but four cans of silly string and a baseball glove!!! This is how it turned out :)
They had a BLAST!!! Thanks Jeff! My sidewalk and yard are still multi colored. Just in time for Easter!!! :)
