Jake's 8th Birthday Weekend



On Friday, May 31 Jacob turned 8!  We celebrated that evening with a few of his buddies and went bowling.  He was allowed to choose 3 friends like his brother did and man that was hard for him.  He didn't want to leave anyone out but fair is fair around here.  He chose Cooper, Dom & Connor and man did they have a time.  We started off at Wendy's with dinner and then a little bowling.  Everything is a competition when you have boys (so I've learned) and it isn't any different with bowling.  Each game of bowling was divided into 2 teams (4 games total) and they were intense but fun!  There was cheers, boos, dancing, high-fives and FUN!  After bowling, we took the boys out for ice cream at Sonic.  It was a great evening of laughs and memories.  Next weekend Jacob is having another friend over for a birthday sleepover and Otter's game. I love the memories my kids are making with their buddies!

On Saturday evening, we celebrated with family and friends.  Jacob wanted a Dairy Queen ice cream cake decorated like the St. Louis Cards.  I think DQ did a great job!  We grilled out and enjoyed hanging out while the kids played.  It was a wonderful evening and weekend to celebrate Jacob!  We are blessed with great family and friends!
