Birthday Party X 2

No school today, as it's the final day of the first quarter and the teachers are getting their grades submitted, which was just fine for the Smith Clan.  This gave us a chance to celebrate Simon's 12th birthday (which happened about 3 weeks ago, whilst we were on holiday) and to celebrate Annie Joy's 10th birthday, which happens on Monday. Basically, today was nuts. Bowling birthday party in the morning, followed by an evening Halloween/ dance/ pizza party.  We partied like it was 1999. How lucky I am to be the parent of these two crazy pigs.

Soooo grateful Simon wanted maple bars instead of cake. Goodness, that made things super easy.

We also had Neapolitan ice cream just to make sure every started the party loaded on sugar.

Naughty food is meant to be consumed at a bowling alley. We enjoyed cheese fries, chili cheese fries, onion rings, mozzarella sticks, buffalo wings and super nachos. Mmmm.

When Simon's score came up, this "Happy Birthday Simon" would flash on the screen.

Totally cool.

Moving on to Annie's party.  

I am so excited that Ryan finally hung up my new family member, 

our giant Spider.  Isn't it fabulous?!

They started by turning each other into mummies, and then ended by shredding the toilet paper and attempting to bury a party guest.  Good clean fun.

Got some pizza tonight from a place that makes jack'o'lantern pizza for Halloween. 

Annie Joy wanted chocolate cupcakes with peanut butter frosting.

Sooo delicious! Lovely lady! If she were older, I would totally share my passwords with her.
