Salem's b-day!

So Salem's birthday went well!! They got my up around 9am and we did his presents first thing in the morning. He made out pretty well, got some goodies he wanted and money to spend later. After that we headed out to The Playstation for their Noon Years Party, but when we arrived at 11am when the party started (and when I thought they opened) the parking lot was almost full to capacity! We parked and decided there was no way we'd have a spot to sit and less space for the kids to play. Last year it was busy too, but not THIS busy! So we decided to head over to Chuck E Cheese. We had drove past it on the way and saw how empty their lot was. Good choice, we were able to enjoy all the games and not have to deal with that many people. Too bad we could only stay for an hour as I had to be at the Scout Shop on the other side of town at 12:30 to turn in some papers that had to be in by 1pm. But we had time to play games, win some tickets, and eat their yummy pizza before we left.

Did the scout stuff and went to Toys R Us to see if they restocked their Legos...nope. Nothing else exciting there either. TRU is getting pretty boring, they need to revamp ours! Did buy some wrapping paper on clearance that wasn't Christmasy and can use for the boys b-day. After that hit target to check out their Christmas clearance, again not much to write home about. Then we headed home...but not before hitting the 3 Walgreens "on the way" for chocolate.

Back home the boys settled down and played video games...Rockband 2 and Wii Fit games. Keith and I chilled for a bit, then ran to Walmart to grab an Carvel cake for Salem.

The evening was spent playing board and video games with Keith winning his first game of Birthday Sorry ever!! Made his night! Poor Salem came in last :( We also played outside for a very short time lettting Salem try out his new clipless shoes and pedals. He only crashed 4 times!

Kaden was able to stay awake until midnight, although it was sketchy for him and Keith around 11:30pm, I thought both were going to fall asleep on the couch. We had planned on doing some sparklers at midnight, but it was so bitter cold, we axed that idea. Instead we had some poppers to shoot inside.

12:10am and the kids were zonked out in the beds!
