14 years old... paradox

He just keeps getting older and older. 

And so do his friends.

Doesn't this just scream..."I'm FOURTEEN!"

Elements of a good teenage boy party: pizza, soda, chips and candy. Gallon of milk upon request.

The siblings and I were not necessarily invited. But we were tolerated. Even though I accidentally blew out the candles on the first try. 

Ethan was happy to wield the fire and relight.

My absolute favorite part of the night was when the fire engines next door started up their sirens and every one of those big boys ran out to the fence to watch it go out on a call. Boys love trucks!

And because they are boys, they created something they called, "The Chalice of Champions". It contained all available flavors of soda, a pizza crust, a dollop of ranch dressing and some m&ms. Basically everything handy they could stir up in one of our "fancy" dollar store glasses.

To the Chalice of Champions!

And you knew they would dare each other to take a sip.

yummy.

The only thing left to do was watch a movie much beloved by teenage boys everywhere:

I love teenager parties. Happy 14th, Ethan.
