Ole Robert had his birthday party with his friends today. And can you guess what they did when they first arrived? They logged onto our WiFi and all sat around doing whatever they were doing on their phones! haha But, that didn't last for very long. We planned for the boys to do a scavenger hunt (natursti) using a camera. They needed to go around our neighborhood and take pictures of the items on the list. The team with the most points wins. They only had 1 1/2 hours to do it. The more the points the harder the item. One of the items was to take a picture of the local church, which was worth 250 points. The church is around 2-3 miles away from where we live so, I didn't think they would actually go there. One team decided to ride their bikes there and another took a picture of a picture of the church that was on their computer. They were to also take videos of themselves doing odd things, like dancing the Gangnam Style or sing The Fox. They even sang Baa Baa Lille Lam (Ba Ba Black Sheep). Was so glad they had good sportsmanship.
This is the list (in Norwegian) they got to work with.

Some of the pictures they took.
This is what I was working on while they were out...
...these "hamburger" cupcakes and "french fry" sugar cookie cutouts.
Almost looks like the real thing! ;-)
They had pizza and pop for the food. Afterwards, they got to eat these while we looked at their pictures in a slideshow. Three hours was not enough time and we didn't get through all the teams' pictures. We almost need to plan a part two so we can finish....
Then there is the clean up time... HOORAY! ;-)
Happy 11th Birthday to
my handsome young man! ♥
His birth announcement.
