another sleepover...surprise, surprise no one slept

A few weeks ago, SJ got invited to another classmate's birthday party (actually two classmates since they're twins).  He was super excited and wanted me to RSVP right away.  (Of course, I forgot.  I did tell one of the twins in person, but you know how reliable 6th graders are.)  

I told SJ to ask the boys what they wanted.  He forgot to ask them, so I had to ask their mom when I finally called to confirm.  She said ITunes gift cards would be fine, so that was easy to manage (bonus was that I got fuel perks).

The night of the party the guests were supposed to arrive around 6:30.  SJ could hardly contain himself until it was time to go. We arrived a few minutes after 6:30.  I told SJ not to worry about gluten foods.  "Just eat whatever their mom serves," I told him.  

I picked him up the next day around 11 am.  He was exhausted, but he was chatting away about what they did at the party.

They had pizza for dinner.  They had a bonfire after dinner.  He said they roasted hot dogs, marshmallows and made s'mores.  

All the boys planned on sleeping the twins' rv. Before they fell asleep, they watched a few "Michael Meyers" movies. SJ said they were a little scary, but he "sort of" liked them.  He said they had delicious popcorn to snack on during the movies.

He said he finally fell asleep around 4 am.  He told me that their mom made all the boys pancakes for breakfast.  He said they were yummy.  

I was very glad that SJ got invited to another sleepover party.  As soon as he got home, he went right to bed.  He was one tired, happy boy!
