We invited a few of G's friends over to celebrate the big day.
We (meaning Garrett) thought it would be fun to do a science experiment birthday party.
10 boys + 10 experiments = MESS FUN!
We made slime (and quicksand and magic potion).
We tested the laws of gravity and physics (turns out they're all true).
We also made lightning in our mouths (Wint-o-green life savers chomped in the dark) and exploded perfectly delicious bottles of diet coke, with the help of a few Mentos candies. I have to say the diet coke geysers were big hits, even if the complete waste of my favorite beverage nearly brought me to tears. It really was so messy much fun. We ended the afternoon by sending Garrett on a treasure hunt to find his presents followed by mountainous ice cream sundaes drowning in chocolate sauce.
We also had a celebratory dinner at Pizza Pie Cafe, our family's fave.
( I had to put this in here even though it is a terrible photo just so we can document the occasion)
Happy Bday G-Dawg!
