My boy turns 8

With Kohl turning 8 he will be getting baptized soon and we wanted him to be ready...scriptures and a suit should do the job.
"Just let me blow out the candles already..."
I wonder what he wished for?
We had 8 friends over and they were all so excited to watch Kohl open the gift they brought for him.
Kohl survived his 8th birthday party. The first one I have actually thrown him that didn't involve just one friend. We had 8 friends over for 3 hours of fun...football, tag throughout the house, pizza making, cookie decorating, apron creating, and lots of Wii playing. I admit that I was very relieved when it was over and done with. Those were 3 crazy hours, but worth it to see the smile on my son's face. He had a great time with his friends and for that I will do it all over again...in 4 years!

Great job! Parties are fun but exhausting I think every four years sounds like a great idea. Happy Birthday Kohl!
