Conner's 14 now. I can't believe it! Where's the time gone?
Boys are so funny. They are an entirely different breed from the mostly girl family we're used to. When you see the pictures you'll know what I mean...
You've gotta be quick with this group, because they don't hold still for very long. You've got one shot.
Conner's gifts consisted mostly of money pulled in wads from the boy's pockets. Some cash was cleverly concealed in a Barbie DVD case (no doubt stolen from the boy's unsuspecting sister who will be blamed later for losing it). I started getting suspicious as I noticed the theme of mula that kept rolling in, and asked Conner, "What the heck?" He said, "Yeah, I told everybody I'm saving for an XBox and they were all more than happy to contribute to the cause."
????????!
They bowled
and ate and ate and ate pizza
Conner missed his cousin Dillon who was in Hawaii- but Dillon brought a pineapple on his real birthday and it was all good.
The Laser Tag was really cool-
Brooke didn't seem to mind she was the only girl. I'm not sure she even noticed. She does great with her brother and his friends and is able to keep up no problemo.
Then they earned tickets from the arcade-
And got garbage I'm sure will be gone in a few days (Yes, I am sure because I'm the garbage monitor).
Then it was home with the family and some cake.
Conner was ordained a Teacher the next day at church. It was a great day. Terrence and I are very proud of Conner and love, love, love him.
