Yesterday we celebrated Luke’s birthday with a few of his friends, his best of friends. As each parent dropped off they commented on how crazy I am for letting these kids sleep over. I just smile and say it is not a big deal and chuckle.
We made our best attempt to complete an escape room…we were so close, but probably needed a few more minutes. We head to my house and order some pizzas. There is a huge commotion at the front door, which tells me the fourth boy has arrived - totally 5 and my other son. They run outside and play some football and then head in to try the Oculus. I almost have to force them to come to eat the pizza. After that they head to the basement for some air hockey and foosball. Once they are done with that we set up the loft area with three tvs and the desktop. The video games have begun! They are good, respectful and rambunctious kids! They make loud noises and run around the house like lunatics, but they get along and don’t argue with each other. So really I can’t complain. Well, until they are still up around 3:15 am. That’s when I pulled the plug - Time for bed boys! I think they finally settled in about four. Actually, I had to wake them up just before the parents came to get them. I even had to send the Donuts in a baggy home with them! I had some tired boys today! It was a great night filled with new memories for Lucas!

Sounds like a great day for Lucas! Does Ryan celebrate with them or does he steer clear of the younger boys?
