Matthews 7th birthday
Matthews 7th birthday
It was Matthews 7th birthday yesterday, and to celebrate Matthew went to see family in the morning and had a party in the afternoon. Before that, Louise got up early especially for Matthew to open his presents (she had worked the night before, and wouldnt normally have been up before 12). Matthew had a Nintendo 3DS, which he was very pleased with, as well as Marble Run - something hed asked for. Louise went back to bed while I took Matthew and Daniel to see Grandma and Grandad, where Matthew opened his present from them and played at their house. We then went to see Gramps.
In the afternoon, Matthew and 5 friends had a bowling party. Matthews friend Isaac surpassed everyone else at the bowling, getting a strike or half strike on almost all of the games and ending with a score of 141. Matthew finished third but seemed to be more pleased that the boys beat the girls (there were 3 of each). After the bowling, Matthew and friends played a few games of air hockey before dinner (sausages) and before his birthday cake was served (complete with dimming of lights and a strange chipmunk like rendition of Happy Birthday on the tannoy). Matthew seemed a little embarrassed by this, as he felt everyone was looking! They were then able to play in the play area before they went home.
Matthew had a late night as we went over the road to our neighbours for a takeaway. He was able to play with Isaac, who was there too. He went to bed at 10.30pm so was able to make the most of his birthday!
