Christopher's birthday was several weeks ago, but Melissa and I
decided that since Nicholas and Christopher are in the same class, have
the same friends and their birthdays are only 5 weeks apart, we should
just have their party together. She suggested we have it at the arcade
at the mall and I have to say, easiest party EVER!!!! We weren't sure
what the crowd would be like (it was spring break for pretty much every
school in town), but I think since it was still a work day, and kids
couldn't get a ride to mall, it saved us. Thank you Melissa for coming
up with this brilliant idea!
The boys have either had a
Thomas the train or a Construction theme for the last several years so
we told them they couldn't have that anymore and decided to go with
Legos. They were pumped when they heard that. So, thank you Party City
for helping us out and having Lego themed items for us to use!
We
had a great turnout and the kids had a blast. There was one game that
was kind of like the big wheel on the Price is Right and the kids would
get 40 to 100 tickets each time they played. They went from game to
game, stopping every now and then for a quick snack. After about an hour
we had cake and then they were off to play again.
The favorite game.
Zachary, the adorable man of mystery.
"Happy Birthday Nicholas & Christopher"
So proud of this little man. We love him so much!!
Pretty little sister.
This picture has "What?" written all over it.
I don't know, but they aren't fighting.
Uncle Burt showing the boys how to play.
They are so serious!
Sophie and all her tickets!
And this is what she wanted to buy, nasty teeth and fun dip. Her fingers were green for 3 days.
Can't wait to see pics! So glad it was a big hit! Sounds fun to me :)
