On May 25
th my first born turned the
BIG 13!! I can't believe how fast time flies, I know I have said it before but it just amazes me. Everything was perfect with my pregnancy itself, no complications, great skin and hair, fast and easy delivery, he was 9lbs 80z and 21 inches long and I only pushed 3 times with him. I should have known then, that this was a sign that he was going to be an "easy" kid :) I
don't even know where to begin, Daniel has always been a very good, kind, obedient kid. We are so proud of him for all he has accomplished and everything that he excels in. Daniel LOVES sports,
ps3,
airsoft, his family and the gospel. I decided to be a crazy mom and for his introduction to the teenage years, we decided to do a big
AIRSOFT WAR
CAMPOUT BIRTHDAY PARTY, that went from 6pm fri. night and the last boy got picked up at 1:45pm on Sat.
Airsoft is the rage these days with boys, and it seems like everyone has one at school. The weekend we did his party there was also a boy scout
campout going on as well, so friends from church didn't make it, but we still had plenty of boys show up. We sent out about 14 invites and had
19 boys show up! The first picture is the majority of the group, 3 more boys came later on in the eve. All of the parents dropping their kids off were amazed that I was doing such a big "cool" party. One dad told me that he would NEVER even try to top our party, that it was the coolest one their kid had ever been to, score points for me! :) Daniel had SO much fun, it was the best birthday party he ever had. We had tents set up on the backyard, the boys went through 12 pizza's, 7 12packs of pop, chips, 2 cakes, ice cream, 50 french toasts and sausage wow, those boys can eat!
Daniel with his one of his good friends
Levent. They went back in the woods for numerous
Airsoft wars, there were little plastic pellets everywhere, they made teams and had at it. With having that many boys, it made for a VERY loud party, I was afraid someone was going to call the cops on us, the boys were up ALL night....but they all had so much fun, you only live 13 once, right...
Daniel got his Grandma and Grandpa Anderson's birthday present, it was 20 dollars and the
Percy Jackson's series, which he was TOTALLY excited to get and had been wanting to read this series. He also received from his friends a total of $145 and 75 dollars in Dicks Sporting Goods gift cards. He sure is loved and has GREAT friends. Our present to him was a BEDROOM MAKEOVER, this is still in process, but will post pictures when we are done
Our backyard/deck was COVERED in the boys camping and
airsoft gear, and trying to keep track of 19 teenage boys stuff was hard, we only lost 2 cell phones, 2 sunglasses, and various clothing items were left, we have over an acre and have searched everywhere and have still not found the phones!
Mommy and Son, I can't believe I have a teenager and that he is the exact same height as me, I love my big boy forever!
Here is my
airsoft gun creation of an M4 birthday cake, I thought it turned out pretty good if I
don't say so myself :)
