8 years old = 8 hour birthday PARTY!

Saturday morning 10am we load up and are on our way to celebrate Ethan turning 8!
Josh, Kobe, Ethan, and Haylee anticipating a LONG drive...(20 min is forever!)
Finally we are there.....

Our rule is always hold hands on "the black"....Haylee took full advantage of this. She has a small crush on Josh:) The kids can't wait for......

As soon as we walked through the doors the boys took off. They were convinced I should just drop them off and let them go. After "the rules" lecture we headed off to play...1st stop....bumperboats!

The kids were good and wet by the end. Which was good because it was HOT! Avery was already tired of the stroller:(

Next stop....Slick Track!

Dad and Haylee went on the "grown-up" cars together...all Haylee could talk about was how fast they went.

3rd stop.....Lazer tag!

This boy was behind the kids and took it upon himself to give the boys pointers on how to play!

Haylee kicked the boys BUMS. She got 985 pts. I won't even tell you what the boys got (so I don't embarsse them....but the closest one to Haylee was 1025 Pts. behind her) They had a lot of fun though. 4th stop...miniature golf

I didn't get to play....can you guess why?

Yep...Avery liked my purple ball. So we just followed everyone from hole to hole and sat in the shade and ate treats.

Dad gave Haylee putting lessons...

I got bored and took pictures of the flowers

Avery splashed in the fountain

The 18th hole. The lizard blows fire if you make it in the hole.

5th stop...the arcade! The kids (and Andy) earned over 800 tickets! Avery liked the tickets and didn't want to trade them all in.

After that we got ice cream and drinks and then headed home. We opened presents and then the boys played catch for a while.

Thanks Kobe!!! Thanks Josh!!!! You are the best friends a kid could have!

I sent everyone home at 5:30! It was a fun, LONG day:) Happy Birthday Ethan!
