So, that’s our son 7! We were lucky this year, his birthday fell on a Saturday so we were able to have his wee party on his actual birthday. This year we had a Lego party. I always like to have a theme, then match the decorations, cake, party bags, and his t-shirt to the theme. The Lego theme cost me a fortune!! But it was fun. I even made a Lego Emmett cut out:

The party was a success. We had the usual people there so no surprises. He even let us sing happy birthday, which he didn’t allow last year. After everyone sang, he said “thank you” ♥️
I had ordered a bouncy castle again, this year I ordered one with a small slide at the side. Unfortunately they didn’t have a Lego themed castle ☹️
There was a bit more noise than normal which made him a bit anxious, but he took the iPad and had a wee time out when it got too noisy. We would normally not have allowed that with people in, but we realise he needs it when everything gets a bit too much for him.
Now, how do I beat a Lego party next year?
