On Sunday, July 23th, Jen and Matt invited Grace, me, and the rest of the crew over to their home for big Tyler’s 4th birthday party. Matt prepped all of the guys without kids:
We’re looking forward to seeing you in 650 this Sunday. Not sure how many 4-year-old birthday parties you’ve been to so here’s the drill:
Ty has a bunch of friends coming (age 4) from school, playgroups, etc. Most of that crew will show up right at 11:30. There will be a big jumpy thing in the yard and all the kids will play in it for the first half hour or so and then we’ll feed them (and their parents) hot dogs, burgers, brats, etc. out on the deck. After that will be cake and after the cake most of the kids will start to bail (no present opening). These things typically last 90-120 minutes, it’s very standard stuff.
The funny thing was, it went down just like that. Tyler and the rest of the kids had a great time. Theresa and Matt got him a Roboraptor, which is one of the coolest toys I’ve ever seen. Snickers will be getting a new friend soon…
What wasn’t advertised was what happened after all of the kids and their families went home. Idema, Dukes, and I pitted Jen, Theresa, and Grace against each other in the ultimate cage match – Burlingame style. Tyler got to ref because it was his birthday. Thanks to Idema for the footage.
Happy Birthday, Ty.
