14 Years Old!

We finally got around to celebrating Clay's 14th birthday!  He had a bunch of friends over to our house last night.  They had lots of delicious Mellow Mushroom pizza and a good game of trampoline dodgeball (rules made up on site).  Once it got dark, we hung a sheet up on the side of the school bus and played two Austin Powers movies with our friend's projector and speakers. Between movies, the campfire was going and s'mores were made (though I did have to make a quick late-night run to the grocery, since some kids had eaten an entire bag of marshmallows as a movie snack!). 

At some point in the night, the kids settled into tents and the schoolbus (one boy slept on the trampoline, I heard).

At 10:30 this morning, we had a yard full of zombie-like teenagers.  They were easy enough to lure into the house when I promised them a good breakfast spread of juice, fresh fruit, bacon and doughnuts.  So, this was the easiest birthday cake I've ever made... not the healthiest, but still, it was enjoyed by all...

 I'm glad his party went off so smoothly!  Here's to another great year :)
