This year we opted not to do a full birthday party for Clayton. We had a long list of reasons why we didn't want to have a big blow out party. Instead, we told Clayton that he could invite a couple of friends to do something fun and then to spend the night. He decided to take his buddies to Medieval Times. They had so much fun!!!
Our section was assigned the green knight to cheer for. He did really well, and the boys were glued to the show. We had upgraded our tickets and were seated on the front row. We were right there for all of the action. It was cute to watch their little faces as they got really into the show. They all had a ball!
Drew wants to be big so bad! He followed the big boys around and did whatever they did. He cheered and waved his green flag with the best of them. :)
The "King" walked by our table and gave Clayton a high five.
Only one of Clayton's little friends was able to spend the night. We set them up on a blow up bed in the living room. The friend got scared and came into our room at about 11:45 (they were both still awake). Wade reassured him and took him back to bed. Wade waited for a minute just around the corner to see if his calming down B had worked. He heard Clayton say, "B, monsters aren't real! They are just a distraction from the devil, God made you stronger than that!" I thought that was so sweet... How many things in our life can we say that about - "that's just a distraction from the devil, God made you stronger than that." Out of the mouth of babes, I guess... :)I still feel guilty that we didn't have a big, huge party, but Clayton really enjoyed his mini-party. And, our family and friends have spoiled him rotten with gifts and little celebrations. So far, he has had 3 different birthday cakes! He has had a wonderful birthday, indeed! Thanks to everyone who made his 6th birthday so memorable!
