11th Birthday Party

I had my party at the Tag Zone again.  I invited friends from school, the Bridge School, friends from pre-school and friends from Hapkido.  We had a really good time running around for 2 hours.

 Mom painted a "Loot Llama" t-shirts for everyone as a take away gift.  Loot Llamas are in a really popular video game called Fortnite.

 My friend Sylas drew me a really cool picture of a guy holding a $20.  I was impressed with how good of an artist he is!

 My friend Andy came over to play.  Mom thought the size difference in our shoe size was photo worthy.  Andy's shoes are on thr left, mine on the right.

 Andy and I played with a maze game that I got from my birthday party.

At school we have a bearded dragon as a classroom pet.  His name is Sol.  I really like him.  I am trying to feed him.

 At school, we celebrated my birthday on June 6th.  Mom was teaching art that day, so it was easy for her to bring gluten free cupcakes..  My classmates each have to say something nice about me, including my teacher, Ms. Jines.

 It was nice to spend the last 20 minutes of the day outside in the sun.

9th Birthday Party

My birthday is on a Tuesday this year, so we had a party on Sunday, June 5th.  IT also happened to be the hottest day of the year!  Once again, my party was at The Tag Zone, a nerf gun arena in Des Moines, not far from the marina.

 Dad played too. 

 We had to drink a lot since it was so hot.  Mom served popsicles as well as cupcakes. 

 I had friends both from Kent Mountain View and karate.  I invited 5 girls, but only Evelyn came.  

 

 After the party, my local grandparents came over for desert and Boccie Ball.

It was a good day.  On Tuesday, I will celebrate my birthday in Miss Newby's classroom. 

8th Birthday!

Sunday was my 8th Birthday and I celebrated by having another party at the Tag Zone!  Most of my friends were from karate.  Mom made all vegan, wheat free treats, so that I could eat anything. (I am tired of going to other people's parties and not being able to eat anything!)  My friend Vaugn is having food allergies too, so it was just as well.

 Before the party, Mom and I drove to Kent to pick up Xavier & Jada, so that they could attend my party.  (Their Mom owns a restaurant and could not get away.)  It was hot today too!

 I got my favorite room again!  It's the army room with the sand bags.

 I had an equal number of boys and girls this year, and four dads decided to play.  We had a really fun time.

 We had a short break.  No cake this year.  I do not like cake, so I did not want it at my party.  We had brownies and rice crispie treats.  Mom had brought lots of water and gatorade.

 The little girls at my party, camped out behind some sand bags.

 Dad, Arun, & Andy are out.  Waiting for a new game to start.

 I had a really good party although I was crying at the very end.  (Elliot shot me in the neck, TWICE!)  it hurts.

 Me with Xander and Elliot.

Me at the end of the day.  I had a great party!  and then a cold shower!  My friends all donated money towards my summer Lego Project.  Mom is going to take me to the Lego Shop on June 12th.  I can't wait.

This was the BEST CARD ever, from my neighbor, Lillian.  It says: "May all your dreams come true.....(especially the weird ones!)  Happy Birthday, Lillian"  I told Mom to keep it.

Having fun with Max

I had a good time with cousin Max.  The last two days we did local things, like running through the sprinkler....My cousins cannot do this since Texas is having a drought, but here they can!

 We hit each other with pool noodles in our underpants....

And we went to the Tag Zone on Saturday night with our dads.  

It was hot, but we had a really good time.

I look forward to Max coming back next summer.

Golden Birthday!

I turned seven on the 7th!

(I should look happier!)  I had my party at the Tag Zone again in Des Moines.  My friends and I love this place.  Mom made everyone a nerf gun T-shirt as a take away gift.

Here are all the players and the Dad's that participated. (Only 3 mom's showed!)  It was a real man party!

Dad and I got hit, so we are sitting out waiting for the next round.

A quick happy birthday, a snack, and then back on the floor to shoot each other!

The two hours went by too quickly.

I opened Andy's present in the parking lot.

He gave me a punch card tot he tag zone and a journal for writing.  (I love to write.) It was a really fun party, but my parents and I came home tired.

Party at the Tag Zone!

 I had my 6th birthday party at the Tag Zone.  It's a really fun nerf gun shooting event in a cool warehouse.  I invited all my friends from, school, preschool, the neighborhood, karate, & swimming.

Not only did the kids play, but so did their parents.  It was a blast!  I had so much fun!

We did have to stop and sing "Happy Birthday", and eat a cupcake.

At the end we did a big group picture.  It was the best time ever!
