What was I thinking?????

Alex asked last week if he could have some of his friends over on Friday night to celebrate his birthday. I said sure, how hard could it be to watch a bunch of 12 yr. olds when all they do is play video games? Well, It was crazy. They all talk a lot, they say "Dude" every other word, they are sooooooooooo loud, and oh my gosh, they eat like crazy!!!!!!!!
I think there were about 10 boys and Megan and her two friends so I bought pizza. I don't know what I was thinking but I figured 3 large pizza's would be good and then Mike and I could eat dinner also. I was wrong. They had those pizza's gone before I even set them on the counter.
In the morning they quickly polished off 15 eggs, 2 lbs of bacon, 2 packages of sausage links, and 30 pancakes.
Alex got so many gifts and a bunch of cash and gift cards. He got enough to get X-Box live for a year and 2 new kinect games. He was so excited.
We had cupcakes for dessert with a few bags of chips and about 5, 2 litre bottles of soda.
Megan had Olivia and Gillian over to keep her entertained. They ended up going to the movie with Mike to get away from all of the boys.
Alex had a great time and was so happy that all of his friends got to come over so in the end it was worth it. It is a good thing that he won't have another birthday for a year.
