Alex is Seven!

Alex isn't a big cake eater, but he loves the cookie cake. Do you love the random monkey he chose to have on it?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I cannot believe my baby boy is seven years old!  We had a very fun birthday party at our house on Thursday after school.  Ten boys came over and we played Minute to Win It games from the TV show.
We had eight games scheduled and two extra in case we needed more.  We ended up only doing six because we ran out of time.

OREO.  The Oreos proved too difficult to get from forehead to mouth, so we moved on to Ritz crackers. 

Baby blockin'.  The kids had to stack blocks on top of each other while balancing a paper plate on their head. Can you say Concentration?

Blow Ball.  We put 20 ping pong balls on a plate and marked two of them with stars.  You have a minute to blow all the balls off the plate except for the two that are marked.

Stack Attack. Build a pyramid and then take it down. You have "A Minute to Win it!"

Victory!

One of the funniest games was Junk in the Trunk. We got kleenex boxes, put slits in the bottom and a belt through the slits. The boys wore the box on their back and we put 10 ping pong balls in it. They had to dance and jump around to get the ping pong balls out. I have a very funny video of this but at the moment I can't get it to load.We got all the games from the TV show website.

It was a fun & funny party. Happy Birthday big boy!

Elephant March.  Pantyhose on head with a baseball in one leg and feet on either side of chalk line. Then the boys swing their head back and forth to knock over water bottles.
