Double Digits.

Whoopee, Alex has made double digits, his 10th birthday.

He actually had two birthday celebrations a couple of weeks apart. The first was just a small family affair having a picnic in a local park.

Not exactly his best smile!!

We had better start calling him a young man now as he gets bigger.  Definitely not a little boy any longer.

His official party celebration was yesterday and guests started to arrive.

This is Ben selecting his party food.

Now thats what I call a well balanced party diet.

Lots of good food.

This was the highlight of the day. The arrival of a trailer full of gaming equipment.

All queued up and eager to play.

Inside was kids heaven. Loud music, flashing lights and four monster screens with an extra two on the outside.

Each screen can show four different segments so in theory 16 games can be played at once, either individually or players can compete against one another.

Two hours later and everyone had a great time.

A special Minecraft birthday cake.

Lovely chocolate decorated with black and green smarties.

A great day was had by all. I even got to go 10 pin bowling without leaving the front room!!
