Invitation to my 8th birthday party at Urban Air!

I was excited about my birthday party but was slow about getting up.  I finally got out of bed at 9am.
I had oatmeal and a piece of sausage and milk for breakfast.  I had a short period of time that I was being a real pill but I finally realized I had better straighten up and enjoy this day.  Then I took a shower and got dressed.

At about 10:45am, Mommy and I went to get my birthday cake.  I wanted a baseball theme on it.  I was pleased with the results.

We got to Urban Air around 11:30 and it was jammed packed with birthday parties.  We had party room number three upstairs.

 There were 8 rooms upstairs and probably that many downstairs, so there was lots of celebrating going on.

My friends who came were: Anthony and Alyssa Baltieri, Cole Whitworth, Xavier and Julian Davila (all neighbors), Knox (Mimz' neighbor), Jon Jon, Brody England, Maddox, Kelso, and Brady (all baseball or soccer friends.)

We spent most of our time playing Dodgeball, which is so much fun with a run full of my friends.  We also played on the American Ninja Warrior courses.  We didn't do the zip line because it the line was too long.

Knox was the youngest child at my party and he didn't know anyone else, so I kept an eye on him and made sure he was included.

The party was from 12 - 3.  We played the first hour, then we ate pizza (cheese or pepperoni).  We sang happy birthday, then all but three of the kids left to go play.  The three kids and the adults all ate cake.  I rarely want to eat store bought cake.  We only had the party room until 2pm, so Mommy and Cole's mom too my presents to the car.  Barbara took the leftover pizza and cake home in her car.  We kids played until 3pm.

I had two gift cards to Game Stop, so Mommy and I stopped there and I picked out some games for my Play Station.

At home, we wrote down a list of my gifts so I can write thank you notes.  I won't enjoy doing that, but I guess I have to.  I received two Nerf guns, an Unno game, and several gift cards and some cash.
Mommy gave me a Bible that I need for my first communion classes.

I played with Austin for a couple of hours.  I played with Alyssa and we ate some of my party pizza.  Then I watched a little football on TV, took a shower, and rested in my mom's room.  It was after 9:30pm before I went to sleep.
