Will turns 12 and Xan turns 8 this month... and for the first time in years, we have hosted a big birthday party. We rented out the theater on base and the boys wanted a monster theme... so that's what we did... complete with spooky invitations. We even watched Monsters University!
The boys cut out vampire bats and taped on fishing line. Dad then hung them from the ceiling of the theater lobby.
We made (non-toxic) slime from borax, yellow highlighters, water and blue school glue. It glows under a blacklight.
The boys dressed as half-zombies... the homemade face paint was not good. It flaked off quickly.
In case you didn't know, zombies eat brains.
Will pulled a fast one...
Which Xan thought was funny...
Until he realized his brother blew his candle out, too.
There ended up being 23 kids, 25 counting the boys, and a handful of adults who stayed. About a third of the kids dressed up.
A photo of me just after I found out there was a cleaning fee I was not aware of. And our neighbors, the Betancourts. And a random dead dragon.
The boys made out like bandits, and this isn't showing the cash and gift cards they got...
