Anyway, here are some pictures from Christopher's birthday party back in November. It was just him and Ever, his friend from school. She's very cute and her mom and dad are very nice. We know that because they were impressed with our large collection of light sabers, and encouraged Ever to wield them along with our two JIT (Jedi in Training).
The big hit at the party was John's hanging bar. Ever impressed all of us by hanging on for a long time.
I think this was her very first time!
Look at that smile!
She could hang a long time, she was very strong! I think her mom and dad were surprised at how well she did and how much she liked it!
John showed off his tricks.
Christopher tried too, but he hasn't quite got the holding on part yet.
The next activity was decorating re-purposed Halloween Happy Meal buckets with stickers in preparation for a scavenger hunt. Miss Kerri reintroduced me to the joys of scavenger hunts for kids and we had one for Christopher. I took pictures of locations around the house. Christopher would go to the location and then Ever would pick up the toys. They were a great team.
After that we had fruit, chicken nuggets, and cupcakes!
Then the kids just played a little bit. It was a really good party.
John and Christopher later watched TV.
I actually had a 5K that morning before the party. I received the prestigious "first in age group because I'm the only one still there" award! It was really cold, and so only newbies stayed for the awards. Basically the race director read down the list of names to find people who were still there! Our friend Mark got best overall!
And I can't even remember how this evolved...
Happy Birthday Christopher! I can't believe how many smiles you've given us in two years!

Thanks for sharing.....
I think we will get a bar for our doorway.....Mimi
I got ours at Aldi for $6 or $10. I'll keep an eye out, it's a good thrift store or garage sale item...
