Turning Nine

To celebrate his 9th birthday, D-man decided he wanted a slumber party. After we offered several options for parties that were not at the house, I guess I should feel happy that his choice was to celebrate in our new home.  We did survive the 18+ hour party with only 80% of the attendees in tears at one point or another. Luckily, they all seem to have forgotten about those parts.The entire party was planned by the birthday boy.
  • Decorating the kitchen with Uncle Matt. 
  • Mummy races over at the open space followed by football. 
  • A scavenger hunt and messing around in the backyard. 
  • Watching "Diary of a Wimpy Kid: 3" in the basement. 
  • Having Nerf game wars and playing with the cars in the basement. 
  • Staying in the guest room downstairs and staying up until midnight. 
  • Actually, listening to the adults and staying in the until 9:30! 
  • Chocolate chip pancakes and bacon for breakfast.




 Being so thoughtful with his goody bags and working hard to make sure that the party went well. It's hard to believe that half of his years with us before college are over. Wow - time truly does fly.
