~Hunter's 7th Birthday- Take 2~

I guess there are some perks to having a birthday so close to Christmas. You get to have several birthday parties. :) At least that is the way it goes in our house. I was so worried about celebrating his birthday to close to Christmas, that I decided to wait a week or two to let things calm down, but I wanted him to have a good day on his actual birthday, so we are ending up having several parties. He had a small family one on his actual birthday, we just had a party with grandma and grandpas, then he will have a friend party later. LOL, the way things are going we will be celebrating his birthday until the end of January.

Hunter really had a good time at this party. He LOVED his GI Joe cake, had fun playing Super Mario Brothers against his uncles on the DS, loved playing with his new toys (I was so proud of him because he was so good sharing his new toys with his cousins), and he really liked having Marley (our dog) in for the party too.
Dave spent the day training Marley to handle being inside without jumping on people and jumping on the counter to get food. Dave did a really good job because Marley went through the entire party without jumping on one of the kids or eating anyones food.

Mckell had fun playing dress up with her cousins.
So, Happy Birthday Hunter! Two parties down one to go :)

The last party we had for Hunter was the party with his friends. We ended up going to the Clearfield Aquatic Center which was a lot of fun. The boys had a blast playing in the water and going down the slides. Only Hunter and one other boy were tall enough to go down the slides by themselves, so Dave had to take the rest down with him. After several times of going down the slide and then straight back up to take another kid down, Dave told me to come help him :) It was a lot of fun watching the boys play together. Happy Birthday Hunter.

I still can't believe it's been seven years since you had Hunter! Well, you've done a great job! What a cute kid. Jasmin was so excited to see the picture of her and Mckell I had to print that one. Take care guys :)
