Kevin had 2 parties, which is what we have done the past few years. One party was for friends, the other was for family. His friend party was Friday night, and he chose to go to Kokomo Joes. It is like Dave and Busters, but for children. We got the boys unlimited lazer tag, and then a couple cards loaded with money to split with the other rides and games. They rode go-carts, (The boys who were tall enough got to drive, but Kevin and I had to drive two friends.) mini-golf, arcade games, photo booth, and jumped on inflatables. Including all that and pizza dinner, they were there about 2 hours. I am so happy that Kevin had so much fun, and that Colin was also there and had fun. The boys know each others' friends pretty well, since they often both play with whatever friend happens to be over.
I asked Kevin what he wants to remember and he said, "It was awesome. I had a great time with my friends, and I won mini-golf by a point. Go-carting was fun and I loved unlimited lazer tag."
(Cute story - there was a girl from their school there with her friends. She was hiding from the boys and her friends would shout her name. It all starts so young.)

The family party was on Sunday evening. Most of our families come, and we usually play strange games after dinner. (This year it was Happy Salmon.) We had ice cream cake for the first time at one of our birthday parties. My brother Jake was there, who I greeted with "Hello Colin in 8 years." (Colin looks a lot like him, and he even moves like him. I see Jake when I watch Colin run.) My brother Tony brought his wife Hannah, who found out they are having a BOY the day after the party! I enjoy having our families over for parties. It is crowded, but fun.
