We do big friend birthday parties on the even birthdays and smaller family birthday parties on the odd birthdays. (Although family birthday parties can get pretty big too. Lots of cousins...) Corbett's birthday last year was even - 6 yrs. Things never worked out and he didn't get the friend party that he should of had then. So we did it this year instead. It turned out really nice! I decorated the dining room and made an ice cream cake; since kids seem to like ice cream better than cake. He invited a few boys from school and a few from church and of course family friends. I think the boys had a good time. They came over at 3:30, right after school, and stayed until 7:00. Rory had hooked up two game cubes in the family room and the boys took turns on them. Then we had pizza(cheese of course) and opened presents. Corbett had fun there! After the ice cream cake each child got a goody bag and probably went home with a sugar high. :) Corbett had a couple of the boys stay the night. So, the mayhem continued into the night...ok, so it was a lot quieter mayhem.
All in all, it was a success! Happy 7th birthday my little bugga bug!
