My older son had a birthday party this past friday night, he had an "up all night" (aka sleepover) party. I had eight boys (all 7 years old) spend the night, they stay up until 2:30 a.m. playing with the playstation and was up at 7 a.m. playing with the playstation again. I had filled 300 water balloons and they were gone in 10 mins!!! We had a water balloons, silly string fight and glow stick fight. Yes, we had fun...but it'll be a long time before I have that many little boys spending the night.

Did I mention that they trashed my whole house???!!!???

next time make them sleep out side and just keep scaring the holy hell out of them

If it is a safer area, sleeping outside is totally fun.

As for the house, that was a given.....

That might work for 10 minutes.

I bet my 4 yr old makes more of a mess then
all 8 of those 7 yr old boys put together. She is a lil blonde tornado of destruction! Be glad she wasnt at your party haha

put them in a tent in the back yard next time

someday he will be past the sleepover stage and you will miss these days.

Treasure them.

Just think of the memories your son is going to have. Thank goodness Bdays are only a once a year thing.
May I suggest next time a swimming party or even a skating party if there's a roller rink in your area?
Enjoy them while they are young! Before you know it they're teens and rebelling.

You know, I keep telling myself everyday that "these are the days I'm going to miss"...LOL. But I swear, sometimes I just want to crawl into bed and never get out. :)

At least it's over now and just have to get ready for my 4 year old's birthday in October. I think we'll have it at CEC this year. LOL

I know exactly how you fell. I've gotten 3 raised and out of the house. 2 more to go! LOL I'll match your bday party and raise you takin 8 kids ranging in age from 14 to 3 to the swimming creek for the day! LOL It was fun but man was I glad when I dropped em all off at home.
