James had a tummy bug on Wednesday and by Thursday have one and I both come down with it. It seemed to linger, and flareup mostly on Sunday for us. What this means is, that my well scheduled 'week of preparation' leading up to his party went down the tubes. Ah, well. One thing we definitely caught onto at James's party, is that the boys want to just run around and play for most of the party anyway!
We still manage to enjoy General Conference on Saturday morning with the Legos, but then Alec had to be whisked away for his soccer game at 11:20 (they won again!), then gymnastics at 1.
But, back to the party: we created an obstacle course, got the food and cake sorted, threw in a couple balloon popping games and the boys were happy as can be! Largely due to the fact that the obstacle course included two squirt guns. Prized commodities.
Preparing to manuevur through the 'lasers':
I even made them put their fake mustaches back on for a group photo.
Alec's uncle got a little carried away with the mustaches at one point.
