Michael's 14th Birthday

Last Saturday we held a birthday party for Michael. He invited the guys from church and some guys from school over for an air-soft birthday party. What is an air-soft birthday party? It's kind of like paint-ball only with 6mm plastic BBs. The guys wear full protection with masks, gloves and, thanks to a little cool weather, a few layers of clothing. It's just a little "target practice" ;-)
The pictures pretty much tell the story.

We had a big cookie made instead of a cake. The image in the center is an "exact" replica of a Smith and Wesson Air-Soft pistol. Notice the red tip, signifying that it is not a real firearm. (I know... I'll keep my day job!) Our kids seem to lean toward these cookies. They take after their dad with passing on the cake thing. Anyway, Michael and the guys had a great time! Sandra's mom as well as my parents from Grand Blanc, were there as well to celebrate the occasion.
