Happy Birthday David!


I was so lucky to steal a moment to get a shot with the birthday boy himself!

He wanted to play football all night long with his new football getup!

David finally turned 6 yesterday! We weren't sure if the day was ever going to come! We have decided to give our kids the choice to have a friend party or a family party for their birthdays. So Davey being the brilliant little man that he is, he chose to have a family party! He knows how to play it right. You have a family party and you have more fun! Bless his little soul! He knows also how to save his mama a lot stress! So Dave Dog chose to go rock climbing, go to see High School Musical 3 and go to Chuck- a -rama for dinner on Saturday night! Rock climbing was fun for Davey and Jake, Amber was a little unsure of it. And Luke, well, he played basketball the entire time we were there. Dick's Sporting Goods in SLC has a huge 75 ft. climbing wall inside and the kids have been begging to go! So off we went. David got to about 25 ft. and got a little nervous, Jake got to 60 ft. and just wasn't quite sure what to do next, and then Amber got to 40ft and said that was enough! Jake and David are ready to go next time they said! This first time was a good test run.







After some climbing, we went to see HSM 3. For HSM fans, I think this third one blew the other two out of the water!! David and the kids had to agree. Of course it was cheesy and silly, but that's what the kids loved! Best of all, it was rated G and I believe it stuck to it. After the movie, we were so hungry so Chuck-a-rama was the place to go! Good choice Davey! He loves it because he can serve his own plates, getting what he wants, of course, and then at the end, he does the ice cream machine- by himself!!! What a cutie!
Then, Sunday being his official birthday, which he helped everyone know about, was filled with our normal family traditions...a big breakfast of choice, lots of decorations, lots of anticipation for gifts, lots of excitement, dinner of choice, followed with cake of choice and the awful long wait for gifts!
As seen above, he got a Broncos football uniform, including helmet, outfit, football and tennis shoes that are Broncos colors! All because he is a loyal fan and that's what he wants to be for Halloween! Love birthdays by Halloween!!!
Star Wars Legos for the Game Cube!! Wooo!! Hoooo!!! So excited!
Yummy cheesecake to top it all off!!

Hey Heidi, and Spaulding family... It's so fun to have a way to see what your family's been up to and to feel connected after so much time. Everyone has gotten so big and they're all so dang cute! We miss you guys! Keep in touch and tell everyone hello.

Still no new blog post, huh? I did a tag thing on mine and I didn't tag you because you didn't do the last tag yet. You are way busier than me (obviously) and so I'll let you catch up on regular blogging before I decide to tag you again. :) I wonder who started the tagging thing anyway. Did you like Twilight? It would have been way better if I had not read the books.
