George had a fantastic birthday weekend. We kicked off George's birthday with doughnuts for breakfast - one of his all time favorites. George then indulged in a full morning of play -- with us doing whatever he wanted. The girls also promised to help him organize his room (more to come on that), and he was so thankful to have the "Lauren treatment," ie., everything fully organized and in place.
That evening we had a pool party with George's friends from school and baseball. George loved getting to see his buddies and have a good time, and they were all so generous. George will be stocked up on baseball cards and other cool gadgets for a long time.
We went to lunch the next day with my mom, and George enjoyed a birthday lunch at Jim N Nicks, where he devoured his favorite - turkey nachos. Thanks to Grammie for such generous and awesome presents! Again, George got to pick whatever activity he wanted to play, and we all joined in. Mostly that involved cars and Legos, of course.
After a dinner of Arby's (his birthday, his choice!), we had an ice cream cake and opened presents. Lauren and Grace got George some Pokemon items and some baseball cards, and we got him some Red Sox gear, Legos, an iPhone (to be used as an iTouch) and some various items. He is very excited to be able to FaceTime and text better, and he has discovered the joy of gaming apps.
Sunday, the trio were scheduled to acolyte at church (more on that soon), and then we had a birthday lunch at Skip's parents. Gran kept the celebration going strong with cupcakes, and George loved opening some additional loot (read: presents!). Thanks to Gran and Poppa for their gifts!
George, we loved celebrating your 8th birthday with you!
