I can't believe Porter is old enough to be 10 and be in the double digits!! This year is a year for him to have a friend party so I suggested we do a dodgeball party at the church. Porter loves when the young men and the young women get together to play dodgeball, so I thought it would be the perfect thing for a bunch of boys! I asked my friend Lauralee to make the invite and of course she came up with this super cute invitation, it was perfect, just like the party! All of the boys showed up and were just messing around and shooting hoops, so when everyone got there it was game on! Andy was so great to get things going and be in charge of the boys, they can be so loud at times, I can barely talk over them. The boys played a few games of dodgeball and then I made them stop so we could eat pizza and have some drinks, they were all red in the face from playing so hard! After pizza we did cake, ice cream, and presents. The blowing out of the candles was very entertaining, I got the trick candles and he really did have to keep blowing over and over! Porter got some pretty sweet gifts, he has some great friends here. After all of that fun, they wanted to play some more dodgeball. This time Andy and Reid played too, needless to say, things were pretty intense. Overall it was a fabulous birthday celebration for my Porter man, there was only minor crying from some of the boys who may have gotten hit in the face a time or two…
I of course have to add how grateful I am to be a boy mom to one son. Porter does such a great job with 3 sisters and is the best older brother ever. I love to see Porter grow up and be such a good kid. He is getting a little too big for all the hugs and snuggles I really want, but every once in a while I am lucky enough to sneak a few. Love you Porter.
