Friday night was Kyle's birthday party...his Spider-Man birthday party. This event has been highly anticipated by Kyle, Benjamin, their parents, and the family cat for months.
Here is his cake. It's supposed to be a skyscraper (there are windows on the sides) but it did not turn out quite as I had planned. I've been much happier with cakes of yore. But, Kyle liked it, and that's all that matters. It helps when you have a Spider-Man candle to blow out!
I didn't get any good pictures of him opening his presents (although not for lack of trying) but here he is examining one of his new toys. Inside are blocks, characters, etc.
Kyle got all bashful when everyone was singing "Happy Birthday to you..." to him. He grinned for the first measure or so, then hid behind his hands. Cute!
We were blessed to have a full house last night. Our guests consisted of six children (not counting mine) and an assortment of their parents. Kyle's Grandma & Grandpa Isom also came, and they are a wonderful addition to any party!
I have not represented the games we played here. We did two: a "Web Walk" like a cake walk, complete with prizes (which were a big hit). Less of a hit was a tie-up-the-criminal-with-toilet-paper game. Problem #1: the boys' team was full of people refusing to be the criminal...Jeff eventually volunteered, although another parent did most of the wrapping. Problem #2: cheap toilet paper? Tears very easily. Oh well, live & learn!
