Today we had Liam's birthday party for him at Boston Pizza in town here and boy am I glad that is over with! I've been worrying about it all week... think about it, 6 kids in a restaurant plus two babies... and then my husband and his friends! Oh geezeeeeee! lol. So for some strange reason that I don't think I will ever fully understand my husband decided to buy a whoopie cushion for the kids to play with... why? Is he nuts? After about 10 minutes of it I had to be the bad guy and take it away, it was starting to drive me mental! The kids weren't too bad but I did have to keep reminding them they needed to stay in their seats and not run around the restaurant... fat chance of them listening to me eh lol. According to our lovely waitress they were very well behaved and she has seen and dealt with much much worse, so I guess that is good to hear : )
So for the party we bought these spider man masks for the kids to wear, well they were a big hit for Morgan and his friends! They all decided that while we were all driving back to our house that they would wear the masks... and they did. You wouldn't believe the looks we got as we were driving through town... 3 cars in a row with people wearing spider man masks lol good times!
Overall the day turned out to be really fun, not only for Liam (who got spoiled with all kinds of presents!) but for us big kids. It isn't often we all get together anymore to hang out and have some good laughs. We are planning for a round 2 in a couple of weeks... but this will include the 6 of us cooking dinner together haha, should prove to be interesting!

Who were all the adults included at the childrens' party? And why would you even think that the men would be there to help with the children? They are frequently worse than the kiddies as they've had more years to get creative and (as Oma says) practice. Note to mothers: more helpful to invite dogs than dads as they can at least round up the little ones, lol :)
ReplyDeleteBy the way, Liam's uncle Kevin keeps saying ouch as I read this comment out loud while doing the writing. Good to know you all survived & we really enjoyed reading about it today as we celebrated uncle Kevin's birthday here in LaSalle.
