Today Ben had a birthday party to celebrate his up-coming birthday on Monday. We went to the Sky Box at the Gateway. I LOVED this party! The kids had fun, eating pizza, playing in the arcade, and eating cake. They all got along so well. They were very kind and inclusive. I always appreciate that. I loved watching these 8 little boys play together.
We had a party room with a plasma TV to watch sports on while they dined on fine cheese and pepperoni pizza. After they had their fill of pizza, they were each given a bag of tokens to use at their discretion in the arcade room. They were so kind to each other, sharing tokens and tickets (prize tickets). I was somewhat amazed that their favorite part of the arcade was......THE PRIZE TICKETS. Who would have thought that those silly penny prizes would become so valuable. I couldn't stop laughing to myself about the complete obsession with the tickets.
Alex, Josh, Shad, Mitch, Ben, Jon-o, Dallas, and Luke.
The ticket obsession!
Love the stashes (silly prizes). I had to laugh at the top left picture of Ben and Dallas playing a game that was out of order. I don't think they even noticed that it was out of order.
Thanks to Kate, Lizzy, and Mike for helping with a fun party!
