I had premade millions of waffles the night before, but Blu got up and cooked LOTS of bacon to feed 8 growing kids!!
Apparently they went to bed at 11pm but woke back up at 3am to continue the Hobbit!
Mom came over to help with the corn dog prep!
(No... I will not be making homemade corn dogs for my kids' birthday parties in the USA!)
At 10:30am, we headed out for some sports games to go with the sports theme of the party! First up was the Quarterback Toss, where Ben came away with the victory!
Uncle Blu got 2nd!
Nice form, Caed! He is ready for some 8th grade football in a few months!
Need to work on that form, Grandpa!
I was 0 for 5...
Fun in the sun! (About 75 degrees outside - perfect!)
Mama Dee was...fun to watch!
Go Misheck!
She was 0 for 5 too, but at least she's cute!
Laurie joined the 0 for 5 club..
From there, we moved on to basketball for a Knockout competition! Uncle Blu was the champion, but Aunt Staci was a close 2nd!
Caedmon and Francis
Nice shot!
Grandpa did great!
We were all cheering for Aunt Staci!
Then, we moved on to the Soccer Star competition! Ben was the champion AGAIN, but it was a close race with Grandpa!
Some of these pictures just speak for themselves...we laughed and laughed!
Caedmon was devastated that his dad and grandpa blocked all of his shots!
Dad was SUCH a funny goalie!
Caedmon had some great saves!
Aunt Staci even got in the goal for awhile!
Don't fall over, Mama Dee!
Sweet picture of these two!
Finally, we moved inside to the weight lifting competition! This is how Cambree and Laurie felt about lifting weights...
There was a tie for 1st place - Caedmon won the sit-ups and pushups competition, while Muchoni won the pullups and curls!
Ben and Francis working hard!
These two...
These guys can do some pull-ups!
Cason tied with 5!
Dad did .5 pull-ups!
Go Francis!
Misheck!
Muchoni also did 5!
Pushups - Caedmon won with 25!
Situps - Caedmon won with 101!!
Staci and I watched... ;)
He looks so OLD.
He tried to blow each candle out individually!
Once the kids left, we had time for family presents. He loved his gifts!
A drawing book
Card tricks from Mama Dee & Grandpa (that Blu can't get enough of!)
Headphones from Cason!
A pocketknife from Cambree!
13...time for an iphone! He had NO IDEA.
It has an awesome soccer case - he loves it!
The kind of gifts we buy our kids...time to move on from Saved by the Bell to Family Matters and Steve Urkel!
This wallet has a soccer player on it and his name engraved on it - he loved it too!
We have had a great day...and I need a nap...but it's on to Kids Club time in 30 minutes!
