Alex Turns the Big "7" !!

6:30 a.m., October 20, 2011, before school... time to start opening presents:)


Opening cards and presents from Paris and Mason.
Birthday breakfast of champions... doughnut holes, grapes and milk... complete with personalized balloons:)

Perfect start to the day... four square before the bell rings...his mom may have even asked the 5th grader who was in "A" to give him one more chance when he got out since it was his b-day... the 5th grader happily obliged:)
Lined up and ready to go into class with his good friends, Charlie, Ryan and Riley.Let the games begin... we started out with laser tag in the back yard...

The boys (22 of them) and girls (3) grabbed their guns and scattered!
That's Paul being chased by an angry mob.
Paris was armed and dangerous.
Still being chased and fighting back.

Roman had just as much fun as the little boys.

Mason... gun in one hand, caprisun in the other.
Lined up for the giant hamster ball on the side yard.

Paris running in the ball-
Out front the Games2U truck had indoor and outdoor video games going for 16 kids at a time. The girls played Just Dance and were so cute dancing in the driveway.
Intense gamer looks from Jayden, Jake, Alex and Bryce.

More intensity inside the video van.

Scary Birthday cupcakes.
Singing Happy Birthday to the Birthday Boy!!


Here is Paris, Madi and Jack (her good friends from school) at an amazing Halloween party on Saturday.


Scary closeup of Mason at the party.

...and Sunday was our annual trip to the pumpkin farm.

for some reason the pics made me teary...Alex looks so grown up, especially in the picture lining up for school. The party looks awesome. Mason with the capri sun and gun and Paul being chased are too adorable. Paris looks darling in her dress and leggings...so cute. You are a super mom for doing this party...awesome memories for all of them! I am going to go look at them again!

Hamster ball, game truck, and laser tag? Your house is like the new better chuckie cheese! And 25 kids--you are insane. Happy birthday to the birthday boy. Alex is so handsome. And can we talk about paris's Halloween costume? Adorable.

Ok, I skip checking the blog for a few days and look what happens. I cannot get over this entire post, where to start? The boys both look noticeably older, like they just turned a corner all of a sudden! The hamster ball is insane, I want one. I am disgusted (but not surprised) that you had the courage to invite 25 kids over, and so many cool activities! (ps: we got "just dance 3" this weekend, and the boys & I are fast becoming addicted!) Finally, I love-love-love Paris' pink Halloween wig!!
