We had to cram in some birthday celebrations while our friends were staying with us. Alyssa turned 10 on Thursday; we had a small celebration that night and we are going to have some of her friends over to further celebrate her double digit age after company central. Here she is fresh from the pool with Charlie awaiting her presents.
Here's Charlie's new doggie bed that he got for Alyssa's birthday.
On Friday we had a very late Ben birthday celebration at an inflatable play area. He wanted to have his celebration when Bo was visiting and our 15 kids together is a big enough party! The boys ran around fast enough that I only captured blurry pictures of them, but I did get some little people shots.
Here's Elijah -
Here's Mattie and Julia having a blast.
Here's Tori and Julia on a big slide.
Here's Moriah's little twin, Aryn; they ended up buying the same D.C. shirt, so Moriah did their hair and nails to match. Aryn was quite pleased.
Lacking better judgement, I allowed myself to be publicly humiliated when I took on my Michigan friend Alissa in the jousting ring. I'm a disgrace to the entire family at this point. If you are interested in witnessing the event, my daughter Alei videoed it and loaded it under videos at the top of the blog. (It's also her voice you hear talking.) I'll obviously be hiring a trainer before I so foolishly agree to the ring again! (It was hard to balance!)

Ha! You're braver than I would be because I would decline no matter what anyone said! I expect my husband would have gone against the boys but not me! Since I don't have a daughter old enough to egg me on with it I guess it doesn't matter for now! When my daughters reach the age to egg me on, I will be too old to do that kind of thing! LOL My boys call me a spoil sport because I don't do a lot of things but the four of us have climbed trees together! That's about the main thing that I will do with them! LOL Hope you had loads of fun with your daughter!
LOL - What a FANTASTIC way to show your daughter that you value her - believe it or not!!! And to allow her to post it too, I was quite amazed that you could even get up on that cube let alone stand on it.
