Amazing Race Tweenager Birthday: The After Party

with the race wrapped up, we headed to Red Robin for the after party.   

major thanks to my co-pit stop "managers"
no way this could have been accomplished without them

as we waited for our food, 

Birdie opened his presents

the coveted King Lebron Elite socks.
a straight shot to the center of T's heart

and then, 

Dean offered up a toast to the Birthday Boy.

and it was Priceless, absolutely priceless

just look at bird's face,
that's some genuine bro love right there

Bird getting the good ol Red Robin Birthday serenade 

phewww.  what a party!  I'm tired just recalling it all.  I couldn't even bring myself to edit these photos and make em pretty - sorry about that Bird.  Man, it really was fun.  After dinner we tried to blow up a bottle of Dr. Pepper in the parking lot by packing it full of Mentos (remember that clue from the race?), but mom didn't buy a big enough bottle of Dr Pepper and it didn't quite work.  Booo.   

with that, we loaded the kids in the cars and dropped them off, one by one on our way home. 

With a favor bag of course..
