Jake's Birthday Weekend!

It was a busy weekend this past Labor Day Holiday!. Jake had an unbelievable football game with a score of 24-0. It was a little scarey as before the game their were 3 ambulances on the field carrying off 3 boys ranging from 8 to 12 years of age. Hopefully, they are all ok. Our Jake scored 2 touchdowns and showed a mass improvement from last year's football season. Actually, it was great watching all the boys come together as a strong team and win the game.

Jake invited a few friends from the neighborhood and from his team for a movie/sleepover. David was super dad while I attended to the basic needs of the boys! Water balloons, to football toss, to sliding down the stairs in sleeping bags and then diving into the center of bean bags. Mom being mom had to walk away..:) We tried to get them settled in with a movie but half of them just wanted to shoot toy dart guns. Daddy bear soon had to stomp down the stairs at 1am in the morning to get some silence in the house..lol. I think next year we'll do a party off-site..ha. All in all it was a great evening and we think the boys enjoyed themselves.

Monday was spent having a BBQ with friends and the boys playing a friendly game of poker. We were happy to have my brother visit with us as well. It was quite chilly on Monday so the ladies had to huddle in the house to get caught up on our busy lives. The food was yummy and the evening ended quickly as kiddos/adults left to get ready for the next workday/school day.
