Eight Years Old

Zach turns eight the end of this month. So last Saturday, we rented the gymnasium at a local church and threw him a Pokémon-themed birthday party.

Upon arrival, the guests were placed into Pokémon teams. Then for the next two hours, we put a room full of second graders through a grueling battery of Pokémon training exercises, including piñata smacking, balloons batting, basket shooting, relay racing, and finally, group singing and ice cream cake consumption.
