So I'm a little behind....Boy 2's birthday party wasn't up to par for one of our parties, but hey, we had only been in the house for 8 days and who knew that you can't just go to the store and buy Mario stuff for a kids birthday? Well, now you do. You have to order it. Don't wait till the last minute to buy anything for a Mario party, plan this one in advance. I did order plates & napkins early on, but really thought it would be no problem to pop into the local party supply store for the rest of my goods. Anyway, the kids didn't seem to mind, there was cake, a bouncy house and a piñata, oh, and we had Super Mario on the WII. I've discovered you don't really need much more than that for 7 year olds.
We did make up a few games too, but I'm having a hard time remembering the names I gave them. I think this one was "Don't break Yoshi's egg" or something like that…I don’t play video games, so I have no idea who Yoshi is and I don’t know why he has eggs.
Getting ready for another game of some sort! ;-)
I forgot how freaking HOT it gets in Texas in early May. We had to take several 'inside' breaks because the kids were so hot! The entrance to the bouncy house was burning their feet!
Taking a break from the heat for cake and icecream.
Awe...brothers!
Having a Super Mario play off...
I wish we had been videoing this....after not too long after this picture was taken one of the kids was hitting the piñata with the (thankfully hollow & plastic) bat when he let go of it & it nailed me right in the chest! OUCH.
Happy Birthday sweet boy!
