Friday dawned gray and rainy. It was definitely an indoor day. I was so thankful that we had been able to fossil/arrowhead hunt the day before. Jules and I ran a few errands with the girls while the littles stayed home to watch a show. After returning home from errands, we fed the kids lunch and it was time for indoor fun and games. While we were busy with the kids, Ricky hid eggs upstairs. Each egg contained a paper with a clue to where the kid would find their end prize, hidden downstairs. To keep things fair for the littles, we kept everyone caged upstairs before letting them loose to find their prize.

| After the recitation of the rules, Uncle Ricky turns the kids loose to find their eggs. |
 |
| Eggs found, and waiting for release. Byron was still looking for his egg. |
 |
| Eden and Gideon found their eggs and were eager to show me (oddly enough, Gideon found an orange one-his favorite color and Eden found a pink one-her favorite color). |
 |
| David and Grace exclaim over their found prizes-Hexbug Nanos! |
 |
| Yeah! Byron found his and Gideon and Eden vie for Mom to open their Nano tubes. |
 |
| Ruth knows her prize is in there somewhere, but Aliyah was doing a great job of hiding it behind gooey, sticky hands that waved wildly whenever Ruth tried to peek and caused Ruthie to squeal. |
 |
| You found your Nano...but first you must move the stickified baby. |
 |
| Uncle Ricky gives some pointers on way to use the Nanos |
 |
| The kids built walls and pens to run their nanos in. |
 |
| Eden dropped hers in this bucket and bounced and vibrated all over as she laughed hysterically. |
 |
| Working up the perfect pens in the hallway |
 |
| Eden. :) |

After the kids had some time to play, we brought them over to celebrate with an Unbirthday Cake. We sang Happy Birthday to Everyone just because there are very few things sweeter than a bunch of little kids singing. We all wore party hats and looked absolutely ridiculous and the kids.loved.it!
 |
| Rupunzel meets the dinosaurs. It was a win-win for all the kids. |
 |
| Partaking of a little cake |

| Aliyah being tormented with that elusive party blower. Hilarious! |
