Thursday, April 16, 2009

It's party time !!!

Soren had his 7th birthday!! I cannot believe how fast those years went by. He has been such a blessing for us. Here are 7 things I love about him;

1. So loving towards his family


2. He is a great playmate for Derek!


3. He is very adventursome


4. He gets me my cereal in the morning (this one is from Cali)


5. He says the most wonderful prayers and his sweet spirit shines through


6. Very good at math (he did not get that from me)


7. He acts so grown up, I love when I still get those glimpses of my little baby




For his birthday he wanted an Army theme party. so we set up an obstacle course at our park and I was the Drill seargant. I had 16 boys running as fast as they could through the course. After they finished they were given a personalised dog tag stating that they graduated in defensive manuevers and covert ops. We then had cake and presents, as the sun began to set , I split them into 2 teams and gave one team orange glow bracelets and the other side greeen. we then had them play capture the flag. The boys had the best time with this. practically every kid cried when their parents came to get them. I was completely hoarse by the end of the night. Soren has told me that his friends from school all where the "Army" shirt I made for them. It was a very fun day.
