Birthday Party Was a Success!

Wow, what a weekend. Saturday was Brendan's Captain Underpants themed birthday party, and it went very well! We ended up with a nice size- 7 boys including my own 2, my 2 nephews, and 3 of Brendan's friends from school.


First they played a game of trying to toss balls into a fake toilet...

Then they had a contest to see who could fling underwear the furthest...
After that, they came inside and decorated underwear with fabric paint...
Originally the party was only going to be from 3-5pm, but we ended up having a slumber party too. One boy left at 5pm (the original time), one boy stayed until 8pm, and the rest stayed all night.
They had pizza for dinner, then watched the 3-D version of Journey to the Center of the Earth...

Adam (my son) and Jacob (my nephew) hung out together since they were the two youngest. Here they are playing with a smiley face light...
After lots of fun and games, playing the X-box, and so forth, they did eventually all lay down. The last two fell asleep around 1:30am. So, not too bad, I was worried it would be later.

The next morning I made them all pancakes and sausage, they played a little more, and then left. All in all it was a great party and everything went well!
Since Sunday was Brendan's actual birthday, we gave him the presents from us that day, and then took him and Adam to see Madagascar 2.
A busy, but fun weekend, and most importantly- Brendan had a great time!
