A Chick-Fil-A Birthday!

Okay so this morning I had every intention of having Damon's birthday party at my place but when I got up and started trying to get everything ready with Damon by my side it became difficult. Around 10:00 a.m. I made an executive decision to have his party at Chick-Fil-A. It just made sense, good food, indoor playground, and a mess that I don't really have to clean up. I called everyone that was invited to his party (close friends and family) and told them about the quick change. Then Damon and I headed out to the stores to get the decorations and cupcakes for his party. I decided to let him pick everything out seeing as he didn't even know what he wanted. This way I wouldn't be in trouble for getting the wrong things. He picked out Power Rangers plates, cups, and table cover, football cupcakes and a Wal-e candle...a non-matching theme.
The party was to start at 3:00 so I got to Chick-Fil-A around 2:00 to save tables close to the playground. After hovering for about 45 minutes I finally go the section I wanted and started to set up while Damon ate some lunch. I had pre-ordered Chick-Fil-A platters online so they were ready by the time I got there.
Everyone started arriving and Damon would get so excited every time someone new walked through the door. He knew he was having a party but I don't think he realized people were actually coming! The Guest List Included: G-maw, G-paw, GGMaw, Aunt Erin, Evan, Briana, Christina, Aden, Niki, Lacie, Laurie, Riley, and Kat.
The kids had a blast as well as the adults and all in all it was a big success!
Riley and Damon...best friends...future boyfriend and girlfriend...
Riley, Damon and Aden...how cute are they!
Miss Briana really enjoyed herself. She got so much attention!
The kids were all over the place but the great thing is, the adults didn't even have to hear it because the playground is in a separate glass room from the eating area so we could keep an eye on the kids without having to be with them. Smart huh?
Yum! Lacie enjoyed that cupcake and she hung in there with all of the bigger kids.

Damon received so many wonderful gifts and mommy got the pleasure of putting some of the gifts together.

Thank you all for making this day so special. We are so lucky to have you in our lives.

WE LOVE YOU ALL!
