Mitch's Birthday Party

Hey everyone! Can you believe that one week from today is Christmas Eve? I can't get over how quick this month is flying by! Festivus will soon be upon us ..hee hee! Because of that, I figured it was about time to update my profile picture, notice the Santa hat? LOL

This past weekend was crazy! I'm actually going to do two posts, starting off with Friday night...Mitch's 13th birthday party. We had lots of company; 6 of Mitch's friends, Darcy's parents, Mom, Dad and Donna, my Nan, Jana and Kim. The kids had a great time, they were pretty wild (considering they drank 5 bottles of pop it was understandable though), but they eventually calmed down (around midnight). :)

Three of the kids spent the night, and they didn't go to sleep until 6am, but they were actually pretty quiet. They didn't wake me..that's all that matters..ha ha! Anyway, I have lots of pictures so here goes..



I'm not sure what Mitch is doing here, but he looks surprised..


A bunch of the kids in the livingroom, they were playing PS2 and munching out..

Everybody watching Mitch open his gifts...

Mitch showing off his new model airplane..

Mitch unrolling the Stones poster that Jana gave him...

This picture has a little story...every year Donna brings fudge and Darcy's Dad (Bim) munches right out. He absolutely loves the fudge, so much that the past two years he snuck some in his pocket before he left. This year Donna made him a special bag and wrapped it all up for him..hee hee! This is Bim opening his gift..he looks so excited! :)

A pic of Mitch's cake...

And of course, what would party pictures be without one of Mitch blowing out the candles..


So, Mitch made out pretty good. He got lots of cash, and some really nice gifts! Lots of models to build, a playstation game, an MP3 player, a Robo-Sapien..just to mention a few. I think the kids really enjoyed themselves and the adults did too!

Every year, Mitch's birthday gives our families the chance to see each other and get caught up on the past year's events. It's really the only time of year that we all hang out together for an evening. It was really nice to see everyone...thank you all for coming! Till next time,

Lissy

    Hey Liss,

    Great post. I wish Karine and I could have been there, we NEVER get to celebrate Mitch's birthday. I'm sure he had tons of fun as usual. It's hard to believe he's 13 already? Where does the time go?

    I love the new pic you put on your profile too. I managed to change mine with your advice. I don't know why I never thought of it before. I'll remember for next time.

    You guys hosting on http://www.ripway.com ? Don't know what I'd do without it. You might encounter the dreaded red x sometimes though if you ever exceed your bandwidth. It doesn't happen very often though. I've been using it since day one and have only seen it happen once.

    Actually Kim, I was gonna do the ripway thing, but then figured I didn't need to. I just used the blogger site, and it worked this time...not sure why! Hope you're having a great time!
