Today was Aidan's 7th Birthday! We started the day with Banana Muffins and hot chocoloate per request of the birthday boy. He got a ride to school with his good friend and had lunch with his dad and his Granny.
He was so excited for his party. He helped plan the whole thing. Invitations, games, and cake. Five of his school buddies rode the bus home with him for his Boot Camp Birthday party. In all we had 13 soldiers show up. It was a well energized party. It had rained all day until about 2p.m. and then cleared up just long enough for his party. We were so lucky! Thirteen 7 year olds in my house at once? That would have been insane.
We dressed up everyone in war paint and dog tags and took their picture.
We played several army games. We did an obstacle course.We made the soldiers carry a wounded soldier across the lawn and back.
We had a granade launch and a paper airplane flying contest. The boys loved it.
I made Aidan a Tank birthday cake. It was so hard to make frosting such a gross color but it looked pretty realistic.
He got some great presents. He loved getting gift cards and even money. He also got a new bike. This is the look on his face when he realized it.
We were exhausted after it all. So worth it though to see how happy Aidan was. Happy birthday, Aidan boy!
