Peter's Ninth

The kids with the friends who helped make the cupcakes.

Yesterday was Peter's birthday. He still wasn't feeling the greatest, and so he spent most of the day lying around watching movies and playing a few games. Hannah and Josh went to a friend's house for the afternoon, where they made monkey cupcakes for Peter. Steven made pizza for the birthday dinner. It was great, but poor Peter only managed to eat a little less than one slice. His cupcakes are still waiting for him.

After dinner, Peter went on a treasure hunt to find all his gifts, and then opened them. He received a red duct tape fez, a yellow boomerang (a bananarang... which later got lost on a neighbor's roof), a pool noodle (or "poodle"), some origami creations, some gummi bananas, a book (Diary of a Wimpy Kid 8), a movie (Frozen) and a couple games (Rack-o and Pit).

When the gifts were opened, some of the kids went outside to play with the bananarang, and the rest of us broke open the games until it was time to eat cupcakes. Peter finished his slice of pizza while the rest of us ate cupcakes... I hope he feels better soon.
