Luke had a great birthday this year! He got to celebrate A LOT! His birthday was on Thursday the 4th. The kids got out of school early that day, so I thought it would be fun to take him to lunch. Several of our good buddies met us at Peter Piper Pizza and the kids played and played and played.
Later that day, Luke's grandma picked him up and took him to the store to let him choose his present! And then she took him to dinner at Red Lobster where he got to devour crab legs! Alayna joined them at the restaurant, too!
On Saturday the 6th, we had Luke's official party! We had it at the park in our neighborhood and all of the kids had a lot of fun. We had a football toss, played flag football, and also had a football pinata! About 10 of Luke's friends were able to come, along with a few of Mommy's friends! Luke got a lot of MatchBox cars, Lego's, Transformers, and football gear this year. He LOVES cars/trucks and knows just about every make and model.
To top it all off, one of Curt's co-workers gave us his 4 tickets to the Rams/Cardinals game that next day!! Yes, it was on a Sunday...but we DID go to church first :) The seats were amazing and we all had SO MUCH FUN!! Jake stayed with Grandma and Grandpa...and got filled up on cookies from their bishop:)
Pictures from the game will be coming soon....
Happy 7th Birthday, Luke!!! We love you so very much.

Jake and his tatt's
...On his chubby knees this time.
We found out this week that Jake does qualify for Speech Therapy through the state's Early Intervention program. His first therapy session is scheduled for Dec. 9th. I am happy to be able to get him into this program and to help him learn the tools he needs to be able to communicate better. I am anxious to see his progress!
...Having a hard time getting everyone's noggin in the picture...so I opted for indiv. shots with Mom.
Jake (below) makes this hilarious face when we tell him to smile!
This picture of Jake is so cute because I had asked him where Mommy was...and I got a shot of him pointing to me.
As we were leaving, the kids spotted a Road Runner!
We HAD to get some pictures! Jake and Ty were chasing it, of course!
