James's birthday celebration!

James is 11!  When I asked to take his picture that day he decided we were taking mug shots.  Silly kid.




This year he got to have a birthday party.  He invited all his buddies and we just did some low key minute-to-win-it games. 







Afterwards they just played outside and hung out.



They played would-you-rather as well.



On James's birthday we had a low-key celebration at home. 




For his dessert he requested cheesecake.



We are so glad to have James in our family.  He is so awesome!

One-one

James is eleven today!  He is such an awesome part of our family—so easy going and easy to please. He is such a great helper around the house.  He is responsible with his time and you can count on him to be on time because he’s always setting alarms on his watch to keep track.  The younger kids claim that he is the preferred babysitter—he’s so awesome and even changes diapers!  James loves to hang out with his friends (and especially ride his bike with them to the gas station for treats).  Happy happy birthday, Jamesy!
