Well my oldest is 6, and decided on a "Secret Agent" party. So we stealthily wrote invitations backward, so the kids had to "decode" them by holding them up to a mirror.Once they made it into "secret headquarters," which involved some handy work with a laser pointer and saying the password into a "spy intercom" (Michael was fitted with an earpiece so he could magically open the door at the right time) we decked them out in their disguises, mostly sunglasses and fake teeth.
Doesn't Dave look great? I'll bet the teeth tasted AWESOME. If they came from China, do you think they tasted like Chinese food?
Their secret mission took them all around the neighborhood and to find the missing cake, which the evil agents had stashed in our office closet. In my biggest coup as evil mastermind, I had rigged a motion sensor near the cake that set off an alarm and shot little plastic darts at the boys.
Look how handsome Michael is in his 6-year-old glory? Better look at the cake picture instead of the fake teeth picture.
And for one more year, the Chucky Cheesy Dancing Rat birthday party was avoided.

wow, you could make money on a party like that. I'm very impressed. That sounds like the coolest party EVER!
Heeeyyyy, Chuck E Cheese parties aren't so bad - you get to avoid being creative and no clean up - My kind of party to throw.
Okay, so when I was reading this, it reminded me of our BYU days when we planned that Secret Agent date thing...Do you remember that? Glad to see you are still an evil mastermind. :)
Happy Birthday to you and Dave and Michael too. Wish you could have been here to celebrate our b-days together again. We thought about Dave as we watched the US Open especially when it was rainy. Any trips planned out here yet?
