Brice's 10th Birthday!
We spent a great deal of time planning Brice's party, and preparing all the games, prizes, goodies, movies... the boys had a very good night! We, on the other hand, had a fairly sleepless night dealing with noisy, sugar-filled monsters!! But, the important thing is that they had fun!
They all came over at 5 pm on Saturday, the 1st of April. They headed out on the trampoline while we got dinner - pizza, of course!!
After pizza, they returned to the trampoline, and jumped until it got dark. Then the fun began!
They were told it was time for a hot tub, at which point they came rushing in, stripped down in the kitchen, and headed out immediately.We gave them 5 minutes to adjust and get comfy, then the games began!!
First, we had little bubbles with activities such as 'who is best at hand squirting their neighbour' and 'who has the best armpit farts'. Prizes were awarded to the winners. We tried the limbo, but they just went underwater!! Then we did Chinese Whispers, where one person has to whisper a phrase to the next to see how similar they can get it by the last man in the circle. We had some pretty funny renditions of 'Chester cheetah chews cheddar cheese', 'He threw three free throws' and Pooped purple pelicans'. Since everyone laughed at whatever the last guy said, we gave him the prizes!
Next was the moment Mom and Dad had been waiting for!! Who can get dressed in the hot tub fastest? Only, we threw in a twist... skirts, girls' tank tops and frilly socks for everyone! They loved it! It really was hilarious! Who won? Everyone was laughing so hard that it really didn't matter, although, I think Bryce did...
Then we came in, got dressed and had a DQ Chocolate Extreme Blizzard Cake - Brice's request. Boy was it nummy!! Full of sugar too!! At least by then, it was time to watch movies!
They watched King Kong, Transporter 2 and a Wes Craven thriller called They.I think they were too busy drawing on each others faces and playing with their prizes to watch much!! They eventually seemed to drift off at about 1:30 - 2:00 am.
Up at 8:30 (factoring in the time change) to a breakfast of scrambled eggs, sausages, bacon, and toast - Brice's request again! We cleaned up, and most went home at some point in the morning. They almost all live right in our neighbourhood, so they are always here jumping on the trampoline, building miscellaneous stuff in the back field, or building jumps for their bikes in the front yard.
I wish I were 10 again, especially living the priviledged life Brice leads!!
