So my oldest baby basset’s birthday party didn’t go quite as I had thought it would. Oh dear. Let me just say my youngest baby basset went to the same paintball party and when I went to pick my son up, everyone was smiling, dirty, and happily eating cake. I thought a paintball party for kids older than the ones at the first party would be just fine. I was mistaken. So so wrong. Geez… (shaking head for the millionth time). The birthday boy, his friends, and my partner in crime and I, all suited up with face-shields and paintball guns, and entered the arena excited and happy. I think I was the first to get shot (I am a bit of a spaz and an easy target) right in the upper part of my leg. HOLY MOLY! That hurt..kinda baaad. That was when doubt about this party hit me. I laughed it off and made my way to the deadman’s box. After that, every kid that was shot came into the deadman’s box crying. I had a box full of crying kids. (heavy sigh). We went a few more rounds, but kids were dropping like flies. So many tears. A few sturdy kids stayed in the game and were having a blast. The others decided to try target practice instead. My partner in crime and I went round after round trying to get each other. Spoiler.. I didn’t get much better over time. The kids were happy when the pizza and cake came out, but I am not going to lie when I say I was worried what the parents were going to say when they picked up their kids with the dirty tear soaked faces. Thankfully all the parents were very understanding and we decided that were going to do it again, but just with the parents…no kids.
