What could a 14-year old boy want for his birthday? How about have a couple of friends with airsoft weapons in tow to join him on his aunt & uncle's 5 acre property and shoot at each other?! Perfect! And so for McKay's Birthday that is exactly what we did.Now here is McKay and his friend Hyrum. We attempted to get a nice, pleasant smile of the two. No can do. Hey, they're having fun at least!
And here is Uncle Mike, the king of all strategy games. Are you listening? Watching? Waiting? Become one with your gun.
Oh and here is Scott. A total poser. He looks menacing right? No, we didn't think so either.
Sam and McKay discussing the war and what took place. Yes, Sam did get shot in the bottom. Possibly more than once. Maybe that is why he is standing.
And after a couple of hours of play time, the boys chilled by the fire and enjoyed some s'mores. No one was burned. Surprising, isn't it?
And what goes well with s'mores? Ice cream! It made me sick just watching these boys eat the two. Oh to be young again . . .
Kyle, Houston, & Scott checking their options. Poor Scott--do you see the tiny pistol in his hand? Not a chance in...well...you know.
Here is McKay and Houston. Cheese!
A good time was had by all. And despite the fact that my teenage son drew a mustache on his upper lip with a PERMANENT sharpie--it was a successful birthday. And my son, for the ammo shot at your mother when she was unarmed--sleep with one eye open. I declare WAR!

Scott kind of looks like the Unabomber in that photo--he's just missing the facial hair. That is a cool bday party, and I think our Mason would agree. Weapons are good! Scary but true (as he went on a paintballing forest adventure for his special party). Looks like lots o' fun.
Scott does look a bit shifty doesn't he? Anyhow, this was the second year we did this. We LOVE low key and easy! I have a feeling that Mason & McKay would definitely be buds. I think they have a LOT in common it sounds like!
