Celebration!

Carter and Colton ~ they are the best of friends and call themselves brothers.  Their birthdays are a week apart and they couldn't be more different size-wise. They are a perfect little compliment to each other. This friendship started at kindergarten open house, and they've been as thick as thieves ever since.  I love that Colton just walks right in our home like he lives there and hands me all his stuff to hold when we are out and about just like I was his mom!  Carter does the same thing when they are at Colton's house.  They decided this year to celebrate their birthdays together since they have the same little posse of friends.  Aaron actually nicknamed the four of them "the posse" in first grade and it's how all the parents have referred to them every since.

They started the night at our house with some basketball and pizza.  Needless to say, the decibel level at my house increased greatly with all the excitement of "the big night"!  Both Carter and Colton have been talking all week about how it was going to be "the best night of their lives":)

Can you tell they are ready to party?

We then headed to Perfect Games for bowling, lazer tag, and arcade games.  One of the highlights for them was the fact that Fred Hoiberg was bowling a couple lanes down from them with his kids.  The boys were pretty fired up and ready to have a fun time!

We saw all sorts of bowling techniques!

Can you tell they hit the jackpot at the arcade?

Thankfully Colton's parents offered to host the overnight :)  They headed to Colton's for some movies and a sleepover after we had finished at Perfect Games.  According to Carter, Colton's parents fixed a "feast" for breakfast which was a good thing because they finished off the big party with the track meet on Saturday morning! Needless to say, I had a VERY tired boy on my hands Saturday night!
