First Sleepover

We gave the boys a choice this year....a party for everyone (family, friends, classmates) or a sleepover. They excitedly chose a sleepover. They have never had friends to stay the night before. So being a first-timer myself and knowing the Joel would not be at most of this  because of football I thought it was fair for each boy to choose 2 friends. So 6 boys, I've always figured once you get past 3 kids it doesn't really matter. So here is how it went...

This is before the party in my nice clean house :)

Here is Brooks, Christopher, Sam and Harrison eating dinner.

It got a little crazy when we unwrapped gifts and gave out goody-bags. 

Here they are before the silly string war. They are all good kids, but good kids does not ensure you against yelling, screaming, jumping and all the excitement that is apparently bottled up in these poor youngens until they all get together at the Pierce's!

They did silly string, popped fireworks, took their shirts off (they thought they were cool), watched 20 minutes of Teen Beach Movie, ate pizza and chips and fruit and cupcakes, played the drums (loudly), played spy/army rangers and so much more!

The birthday boys were great hosts that night!

Even the dogs were worn out! Haha, really that was a great night's sleep for Joel and I and I think it is because we sent Saylor to Nanny's. The boys all went to sleep about 10:45 or 11:00 that night and of course my two were the first awake at 6:15am. The other normal children started waking up from 8:00 to 9:00 and by 10:00 everyone was gone! Sleepover was a success and I would do it again but not until they turn 10!
