(Yes. Yes. A week later because mommy and daddy was half a world away. :-P)
This year's party theme was "At the Movies".
Didn't want to have the party at my house (recall BLUE icing on my cream-coloured sofa??)... so went around looking for a venue. S2 initially wanted to have a futsal party but advised against it since he's not exactly a footballer. Convinced him to have a movie-theme instead as I managed to book a mini-Cinema at one of the serviced apartments near to my place.
Here are some photos....

I had arranged for the kids to have their tea-time snacks prior to the movie ....also because most guests do not come on time.
Buffet Spread for the Kids
You should see the scuffling over the sweets!!! Waliow! Really like a BIG GANG WAR! Hahahahha
When I told H that I was getting a pinata, he said "What for? They are so big already". But BOY! The kids were really excited when it was time to hit the pinata. Big kids. Small kids. When it comes to sweets. They are still kids!
There was popcorn, french fries, spilled drinks and what-nots all over the room!! When I saw the cleaners, I quickly slip them some tips...hopefully, they won't be cursing us!!
After the snacks (which the kids did not really eat! Hrmffff!!!), it was time for the movie.
What movie did they watch?
THE MUMMY ... I thought this to be a good movie for the kids as it has adventure, suspense, horror, humour and action.

Got some popcorn popped in the microwave too... H actually wanted to bring our own microwave oven. But lucky I smart! Called the place and requested for one.
Half way through the movie, you get some scared kids running out ....heheheheh and then in again. Out and in again.
After the movie ended, it was cake-blowing time....
S2's Movie Reel Cake
And then, it was time for the PINATA!!!

As usual, halfway through the pinata-hitting session, my S2 started to whine and cry about people hurting his leg and he won't get any sweets blah blah blah. And H came to his rescue. He actually dipped his hands into the pinata's crack to scoop out some sweets for him.
I was like....THIS IS DEJAVU!!!!

Every party, my S2 sure must be like that one. :-P
After the sweets were all collected, cake eaten, goodie-bags given away, some boys were still NOT on their way home. Instead they remained in the room wrestling and whacking each other. Anyway, I was pretty glad that the party ended and I don't have to be the one cleaning up...
Look at the mess!

Went home tired, laden with loads of leftovers and a very throbbing headache!!!
No more parties. I told the boys. Maybe just have 3 friends over in future......
