Nate wanted a unique 16th birthday, so he decided to have a boffer sword party, hosted by the Tacoma Game Matrix. He got to do this at the Renaissance faire and had a blast. Plus honestly, what teenage boy doesn't like to fight? They do so much on video games as it is.
So we started by having friends and family at our house. Jason from Game Matrix came and we went down the street to China Park across 19th to get our game on!
After some stern rules and instructions they divided into teams and Jason had them going for a straight hour and a half!
After they were exhausted by all gushed about what a good time they had. I think that video game thing is a part of it.
So then we headed back to the house for the party.
Here is the shield cake I made for him.
HAPPY 16th birthday NATE!
As the party wound down, we toasted his birthday at 5:04pm, when he was born exactly 16 years ago. After family left, the boys spent the remainder of the night outside skating, playing b-day and video games in the den before crashing for the night about 2am.
