The BOYS and Girl

The BOYS and Girl
THE MONKEYS: Lelia, Spencer, Kaden, Tyson, Parker (and Josh, not shown here)
A boy is a piece of skin stretched over an appetite, a noise covered with smudges, the problem of our times, the hope of the world. Every boy born is evidence that God is not yet discouraged with men.

Tyson's 6th Birthday

With only a week to recover and start planning after Parker's birthday, Tyson's birthday comes along pretty quickly in May.  He also wanted as themed party, and as suits his personality, he chose a Sports theme, which is easy (sigh of relief).

To make it easy on myself (and due to unsure numbers of friends attending), I suggested they play games, and any kind of sport they wanted.

They started with TWISTER!


Fun and craziness was had by all.

Some friends were very interested in Legos.

The timing of the party made me feel like it was best to offer a healthy snack before the brownies.


Josh saved the day again!  He made brownies and cut it into the shape of a football.  The baseball bat candles were a nice touch.


Lots of friends meant lots of gifts!

And lots of fun afterward!

True to our tradition, on the day of his birthday I took lunch to him at school (again a pizza).  I know the Birthday Chicken came, but somehow the camera didn't make it!  He also had a special birthday dinner.  All we caught on camera was the opening of his gifts...which may have been the part he liked best.


I was really proud of the gift I found him, since I'm tired of toys.  It's called Snap Circuits.  The boys have had LOTS of fun building circuit boards that use battery power to make a propeller fly, lights light up, and noise.  It's the best.
