We celebrated Andy’s birthday today. He had a nice birthday and day at school. I took Andy to breakfast this morning at Morin’s where he enjoyed a meat lovers omelet. I took him to school then and ran home to find that Andy had forgotten the food and toilet paper that he was donating to the local food pantry. So I grabbed that and ran back to school. then got some sleep.
Tonight we celebrated with some of Andy’s leftover cake from his birthday. Then we gave him his gifts. They were mostly Axolotl themed. I found some cute tshirts, a mask and Allison found a small hand puppet. I also found a very cool Dungeons and Dragons themed Nerf blaster. We’re going to celebrate with birthday dinner tomorrow night.
Today was Andy’s birthday party. We held it at One Up Games in Plainville, Ma. This location has a bunch of video game systems, some air hockey, pool and also a stand up cabinet system with 10,000 video games. We had about 15 kids at the party and ordered some pizza and Allison made an amazing Minecraft cake and cupcakes.
The theme of the party was Minecraft and I figured that the kids would all play together in the game but instead they played all sorts of things. Some played together and some played independently. Eva and I played some air hockey together, too. I even got to play some Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles games and Spy Hunter on the stand up cabinet. Andy’s favorite game was a virtual reality game, too.
This was a great place to hold a birthday party. The people there were very nice. They don’t even bill until they get the final count of kids that came that day, so that was a good thing. I appreciated that a lot.
