Getting Medieval

It was quite the weekend, as usual. (But when isn't it around here?)

Carson turned 10 on Friday, and planned for himself a "medieval sleepover" party with 4 friends. They had a blast - I think their favorite part was dinner, followed closely by the treasure hunt. But they loved the pie fight too, and swimming, and making shields, and dressing up, and playing, and just hanging out. Carson always invites the same small group of close friends, so it's always really pleasant. And Reed was away on his first (successful) sleepover too, so it was all good! (Will and Satchel also took the smart path, and made other plans for the evening. Good plan!)



My favorite part was the menu Carson designed: Sausages, Drumsticks, Bacon, Bread and Watermelon. And no utensils. They were SO into it! Until they realized that all the meat they'd piled on their plates was actually pretty greasy and filling... pretty funny!

But I have to say, I'm glad the weekend is over, and the worst damage is that we have 7 new Bionicles to trip over!
