Nathan, the BIG 7!!

It's crazy to think my oldest is now 7 years old!! He's halfway to a teenager! He's slowly turning into an actual kid not a little kid. What I mean is, you can see that slight attitude come out on occasion. He is growing up and taking it all in, from kids at school and the playground, etc. If only I could keep him in a little bubble, but I guess it's life. From what I hear, it only gets worse.
For his birthday this year, Jonathan and I decided to get Nathan a snowboard. I can't wait to see him going down the mountain! He's really excited, he's never done it before and I think he'll do well, we shall see though:) Just no broken bones!!
Grandma & Grandpa, and Granny & Papa sent gifts through the mail. He had a hard time waiting 2 and 3 days to open them. The anticipation was killing him, but patience is a virtue. We all love getting packages in the mail, it's like a little bit of home and it's nice to know people are thinking of ya.
For Nathan's birthday we went and played mini-golf, it was indoor, with black lights. We had a good time and we all were pretty awful. The course was pretty tough. The boys told me I was the worst on the team. I told them, "yeah, but I'm the best girl on the team." They agreed.
After golfing, we asked Nathan where he wanted to go for his birthday meal, he could choose anywhere at all. His choice, McDonald's, he said, "I'll get to get 2 more presents (the toy in the happy meal, and being able to play in the playland." He's easy to please!

Caleb didn't know what was going on, but he absolutely loved the balloons.
So, here's to another year older, Nathan, we love you!!
