8 Years Ago......
On March 5th, 2002, we welcomed our 9 pound, 2 ounce baby boy into the world! It is hard to believe that 8 years have passed! Here is Beckett posing for my annual birthday picture by the flag! You can check him out here (last year), when I put his first b-day pic and his seventh b-day pic on the blog! I just love looking back at pictures like this! They just grow up so fast! Isn't he handsome??
So tonight, we had both sets of grandparents, two cousins and three buddies join us for birthday supper. Papa John's pizza, salads and brownie sundaes! My kids haven't wanted cakes for the last couple of years....so all I have to do is prepare a pan of brownies, add some vanilla ice cream and some hot chocolate sauce and they are happy! Here is a silly picture of all of the kids at supper tonight!
Here is a picture of Helen and Lille. After supper, they went home with Nana and Papa to spend the night while the boys all stayed here for a sleepover.
And I just had to add this one because it is so sweet. Will loves to read books and he and Grankaki spent quite a bit of time with this Grover book tonight!
This last Wednesday, Will, Helen and I went to Beckett's enrichment class that he attends once a week and brought a birthday cookie for him to share with his classmates! Here they are in front of the door to his classroom.
Here is a picture of one of the cookies we took. I actually took two to feed all of the kiddos. I got it at Krogers and although Beckett said it tasted really good, I was disappointed in the design and the handwriting. I guess it is the teacher in me....but I wish they would have handed me the bag of icing. I could have done a better job than that! Beckett even noticed that it was kind of sloppy and he usually doesn't say a word about that kind of thing! After he looked at it, we were walking to the front of the store to pay for it and he told me that he thought we might ought to talk with a manager about it! Ha!
Here he is with his classmates. This is a group of 2nd-5th graders and Beckett has really enjoyed his time in this class this year. He has made many friends and had some wonderful lessons in Science, History and Art Appreciation!
And last, but not least, here was the life of the party. Mr. Will had himself quite a large time in the classroom. He enjoyed roaming around and greeting all the kids. He also enjoyed pretending to type on the keyboard at one of the computers! He just looks too big! He will be turning 8 before I know it! Yikes!
