Tayson's Birthday Party

Tayson really wanted to have a pool party for his birthday but on Saturday it ended up being really cold and rainy so about 30 minutes before the party and 30 minutes after I finished running 20 miles so the start was a little stressful.


Everyone was helping Steve and Christine move in across the street so I filled the minivan with 6 of the kids and had to leave Claire and Sophie behind with Todd. Heidi got there about 20 minutes later which was great to have a backup....but she brought 4 kids with her so now the count was 10 kids and 2 adults. Then Todd showed up with the girls and Chris came to help so we ended up with enough adults and the kids were great the whole time. I am so glad we bowled instead of swam or I could have never done it with ratio of kids to adults.

After bowling and corn dogs at Fat Cats we went home and had b-day cake and ice cream then the kids played downstairs for about 30 minutes until it was time to clear out so Sophie could take a nap. It was a little crazy changing plans so last minute but it ended up being perfect and Tayson had a great time with his siblings, cousins and a few friends.

Who is that goofball with the bowling ball on his head??? Does anyone claim him? Thanks for taking them, I think they all had a great time. I can't believe Tayson grew 7 inches, that is incredible!
