Myles has always had parties at home, and never asked to have a party at some fancy place with bounce houses or really expensive pizzas. So the past few years, I've tried to come up with creative options (last year was Popcorn and a MOive, and the year before was Arts and Crafts), so this year, again, he had no interest in venturing out to an elaborate facility! So, I, again, had to think of something creative. So, I came up with a Lego party. I combined his gifts and party into one. I got him several Lego sets from one particular theme, Lego Space Police! I then sent invites (looking like small paper briefcases with confidential on the outside) with missions to complete! The boys all had a great time playing with the Legos and creating their own missions! Thanks to the neighbor boy, the big sets were built ahead of time! And then it was time for singing and cake, and Myles sure enough had his ears covered, for some reason he despises the song Happy Birthday, and it doesn't even have to be sang to him. He doesn't like it at any time! His friends and him enjoyed laughing at the candle that did not blow out. After three or four times trying to blow the candle out, they started fanning the flame. Then it was time for the adults to take away the candle!!! It was so funny watching them laugh in amazement as the candle relit each time it was blown out.
After the kid party it was the family party! Just one big day of parties! I wouldn't have it any other way. My morning actually started out with a scrapbook event in Noblesville, which was so much fun. On the first Saturday of each month we meet in Noblesville at the Logan Village Mall for a short project (for complete details visit www.projectscrapbook.net). It was great to see the return customers and meet some new ones!
