My Baby Turns 16!

We celebrated Indy's 16th birthday this past weekend.  His birthday fell quite inconveniently on Superbowl Sunday I might add...  However our theme of the weekend was POKER.

We started off Friday, after Indy's soccer game, surprising Indy with a few friends over for an "adult" game of poker.  And a surprise visit by Deb who sufficiently embarrassed Indy with many more the 16 kisses in lieu of the obligatory spankings :)  (And I forgot to get that on camera!)




In the end a good time was had by all.  Well... mostly by Indy since Scott, who came in first and won the majority of the pot, gave him the winnings AND Cory who came in second, winning much needed gas money which is pretty important when you're 16.

We spent Saturday doing random activities with Indy which included breakfast with Esprit and me, going to watch Dos Pueblos at a girls water polo tournament in Irvine, pool playing at Big Shots and finishing the night with Chinese food for dinner.

Sunday was Indy's actual Birthday.  The day started off with the living room filled with balloons as well as gift #1 (of 16) and a bouquet of 16 balloons.



And Sean joined us throughout the day...


The remainder of Indy's 16 gifts would show up randomly throughout the day, including the waitress at breakfast delivering one!  With each gift came the rather loud announcement "P R E S E N T".

Although originally planned as a surprise (thank you very much Scott...LOL), this was also the day of the "big" party.  We carried the poker theme all the way through.  We even designed a large poker chip for the invitations.


Decorated in red, black and white...



Played games...  


 Marshmallow tower with the tallest tower, which needed to stand on it's own to win.


The old cotton ball sticking on the nose with petroleum jelly game :)  My personal favorite! LOL  (notice Indy's birthday tie?  Complete with 16 candles...)



The serious poker players...


And the winner is.... JORGE!!!!!  Better luck next time Sean...



And my FAVORITE part of the day... my birthday photo with my son.  My heart melts...
