Birthday Party!!

This was also back in September...we celebrated Dylan's 8th birthday at Zap Zone! Lots of family and friends came out so that was awesome! The kids liked playing laser tag and Sammy Sosa came in 1st place!!

 
Happy 8th birthday Dylan!  We love you so much and we are so proud of you!  We love the kind spirit God has given you and we love how you love others.  We hope you had a great day!

A Champion!

 
So this was back in September, but David went to a huge volleyball tournament in Chicago.  He and Dave Rosenboom got 1st place in their category. Way to go babe!  We are really proud of you!

Oh, Benjamin

As we were out walking one night...

Benjamin: "I wish I was Jesus."

Me: "Really?  Why is that?"

Benjamin: "Because then I could buy all the legos I wanted and I wouldn't need any money...because Jesus doesn't need money to get legos...right mom?"

Young Love?

So, Benjamin and I dropped Dylan off at the 2nd grade door then we headed over to where the kindergartener's line up.  We were a little early, so we went back to peek and make sure Dylan was doing okay and we saw him just standing in an embrace with this girl Claire.  Not a hug mind you...just standing together...hugging...not letting go...  I asked him about it after school and he said he wasn't hugging her, she was hugging him...he didn't seem to mind though.  Anyway, I think Claire is super sweet and cute and kind and well behaved...and she has great taste in people!

Jobs

As we were driving home from school...

Dylan: "Mom, what's a job where you can make lots of money?"

Really, does it start that young?...this leads into Benjamin asking about the army...

Dylan: "Benjamin, you don't want to be in the army, there's like 100% chance of dying!! It might be fun shooting a gun, but it's definitely not fun dying!"

Just so ya know!
