Clyde's Birthday Dinner

Clyde NEARLY always picks Japanese for his birthday dinner.

This year had its issues.  We went to Kampai, but  they wouldn't let Lucy eat the food we had brought from an outside restaurant (we have NEVER had this be an issue before) even after we explained that she had food allergies and couldn't eat there.  Stephen stated if his daughter couldn't eat there, then he wouldn't...we all then left (this after waiting a while for a table, waiting at the table, then ordering drinks...all with Lucy's food in clear sight.)  So they lost a party of nine.  And we were SO hungry.

But then we went to Shogun and had a FABulous time!! The girls are terrified of "fire restaurants", but Clyde absorbs every minute of it.  He loves everything about it.

The goldfish...

The cooking...

The soup...

The rest of the food....

Okay, so he likes this part ALOT...
Telling Nina how wonderful the food is...
 The fact that we now have our token family member who eats sushi....
 
And THEN  they started playing a drum and brought him a HUGE plate of fruit and some very nice souvenir chopsticks "that I really get to keep."
 Then he opened gifts....

Super Villain silly bandz from Iris...

these weird fuzzy worm things that are kind of like a magic trick, from Lucy....
gymnastics lessons from Sherry and David....
Marble Mania from Mom and Paul...
and a nerf gun from Mommy and Daddy....

 
 and once again, fun was had by all.
