Well, on the big day he seemed to forget that it was his birthday! He had his school program to prepare for (even on a Friday when he doesn't normally have school), aerobics and computer class in the morning. But the most important thing for David was his daily dose of Wii. He is almost religious about getting in his Wii time, even if he isn't super interested in the specific game of the day.
Well, he had to turn the Wii off as his friends started to arrive. Picture bingo seemed a great way to keep the kids occupied while everyone showed up. Although, there is a certain age where kids truly begin to understand what they are doing and not everyone there was quite to that age yet. But they still had fun putting beans on all the pictures.
Michelle was very excited about the birthday cake. David said he liked it so we made him pose for a picture to prove it.
He received all sorts of presents but seemed most excited about the attention he was receiving today.
These foam swords were the absolute hit of the party. We may have opened them prematurely because they were a distraction for all the kids for the remainder of the party.
We did manage to get the swords put aside during most of the present opening, but once the presents were done...
David proudly displays his Olympus High school head-band and wrist-band from his grandpa Jones.
Michelle made David an adjustable apron that he can use when he is helping mommy in the kitchen. It features an adjustable strap that will allow the apron to grow as he does and has two nice front pockets for all his cooking needs.
We're excited that we could celebrate David's birthday and have so many wonderful friends come to support him too.
