Parker's Birthday Bashes

Tuesday June 22nd we celebrated Parker's 8th birthday. We have a tradition in our home that the birthday person can choose their meals that day but only be allowed to eat out once. So Parker chose crapes for breakfast and then opened the gift from his father and me.

His old amplifier had bit the dust a couple of weeks before his birthday so we knew exactly what to get him. This one has a built in tuner which was exactly what he needed. He wasted no time in trying it out :)


After getting a few things done around the house, we all went out so Kaleigh and Blake could get him a present with their own money. They hadn't gotten around to it seeing we had just gotten home from vacation the night before.
Blake ended up getting him a package of Silly Bands and Kaleigh got him a new Webkinz.


Since we were out, Parker decided he wanted Chinese for lunch, so we scooped up Mem-Mem and took her with us to celebrate. She gave him some cash for his quad, along with a Red Sox hat, shirt, and shorts. Go Sox!


We ended the night with a can of Campbell's chicken noodle soup and Daddy's softball game. It was a good day.

But wait the fun isn't over......

He had a Wii party/sleepover on the following Friday night with his brother and two of his guy pals, Nick and Mitchell. They swam, ate, opened presents, and played wii......




ate some cake.......



and played more Wii.


Other than the fact that they didn't fall asleep till 10pm and were up at 6:30am, it was a very low-key and easy party, and I liked it that way!
