Happy Birthday Emily!

Emily's friend party involved "byob". The "b" meant booster seat. Here is a small portion of the booster seats we had sitting in our living room before we left for Fat Cats to bowl. Just buckling in 9 4-5 year olds took some doing.
Emily's dream Birthday party was to go bowling with all the friends she knew. And so when we checked in with 11 kids and needed all the small balls we did get quite a few stares. Most of the kids used the handy ramp until they started showing off. One little boy actually kicked the ball down the alley and then said it hurt.

Climbing on the ball return was the highlight. Emily got her hat the day before at preschool and wore it her entire party. "She is the birthday girl of course."


Tyler was about the only one who took the game serious. Of course it took forever and we told all the kids at frame 8 that the game was over. Most were starving so they didn't complain and the others didn't have any clue that the real game has 10 frames.



We were on a tight time schedule. This is the party getting their food so that they could hurry and eat before the parents arrived. They had a total of 15 minutes to open presents and eat.




Emily wanted a pink flower cake. Tyler didn't think it looked real enough, but the rest of the party knew what it was. They mainly just wanted to eat it.
