You might notice that the following pictures look so much better, it's because these pictures were taken by Sean's mom who owns pretty much the best camera, ever! So the pictures are in much better quality. So now you can see what happened during Matt's birthday party all over again, a little better. :)
In the Beginning -
In case you are wondering where we got the decorations (quite a few people asked us that at the party, actually), the answer is "PARTY CITY"!!
Sean made the sushi rolls. Oh you can't see my specialty Bulgogi (Korean bbq). Sad... But just in case you're wondering how it was, it was FANTABULOUS! If you ever come and visit, I will make some for you. Yes, that's a promise!

Awww... How cute are they?
So what do you think? Do you love the outfit?
Smile for me, baby!

Who knows what they were up to?! :)
So this is what we did. You see the box on the couch? We call it Matt's birthday box. We are keeping Matt's birthday memories in the box. We are saving some of the decorations we used, some pictures, and letters from the guests that came to his party. I passed around cute stationery to everyone that came and asked them to write Matty a note for his 8th birthday. Matt will be reading those notes on his 8th birthday. Everyone thought it was a cute idea.
That's the ring I was talking about in the previous post entry. Isn't it a beautiful ring? I hope Matt passes it on to his children. It's a 24 K gold -really soft and thin- Just pretty, pretty..

Okay this is the game I was talking about in the last entry. We had a spatula, a laptop, a paint bottle, a pencil, money, a thermometer, and a hammer. But you can use pretty much anything. It's your choice!

Matt trying to figure out what to pick.
There! After touching pretty much everything, he picked up a spatula!
All the gifts for Matty boy!
Matty pointing at a doggy in the book - the cutest book I've ever seen!
I think Matt's favorite gift was the bouncy ball.
More toys.
Whenever I pointed saying "How old is Matty boy?", he pointed one. It was the cutest thing ever!
One happy family
Happy birthday to you, Matt! My diet was officially ruined that day. Mmmm.... It was so yummy, though.
Basically, Matt started crying as soon as we lit the candles singing "Happy Birthday". He does not like loud noises. Poor guy...
He got his fingers dirty... Not liking it...
Hmmm.. this doesn't feel so bad...
Let's have a bite, you might just like it.
NOPE I don't like it!!Other than Matt hating the cake, everything turned out great!
