As I began yesterday, we did something a little different for his birthday this year. And it was more or less by his request. Only a few friends, bubbles, monster trucks, and fighting. I’m not sure what Levi had in mind for the fighting, but he had a few toy-sharing tats with his friend. We checked off the bubbles in the post-party bath. I am exhausted, waiting for photos to upload to Flickr so I can post a slideshow here.

The bottom line is he had a great time. The pizza was good, the cake was good, the company was good.
