Happy 10th Birthday, Franklin!

We threw a birthday party for Franklin at Gattitown this evening. He is turning 10, so he was allowed to invite 10 of his friends. Only 4 were able to attend (other than his brothers), but they had a great time anyway! They ate from the pizza buffet, ate Lego cake, opened presents and played in the arcade. The cool part about Gattitown is that it is similar to Chuck E Cheese, except it has bigger kid games - like bumper cars and bowling! The boys all had so much fun & went home with goodie bags of their own. Franklin went to bed a very happy boy. I hope he has good memories, because it will be 3 years until his next party! :)
All of the boys (3 from his 3rd grade class, 1 from church, plus 2 brothers):
Lego birthday cake (each "brick" was a separate piece made from fondant - wow!):

The birthday boy - I can't believe he's TEN YEARS OLD!!!


Bumper cars - the big highlight of the evening:

Awesome cake!

Why no party again for 3 years?
You probably posted about it before, I just forgot. :)

Happy Belated Birthday from Ryan. I'm w/Julie, that is a cool cake. Did you make it? I haven't seen one like that.

A local lady made it (friend of a friend). Her cakes are absolutely amazing, so I knew she could think of a creative Lego themed cake! :)

We have a party for one boy each year, so this was Franklin's year. Next year - Truman.
