Kyle Turns 8!

Kyle had what he said was, "My best birthday ever!" He woke up to several inches of snow...his dream come true! It snowed all day Sunday and he loved every second of it! We went to the store the night before to get apple pie, but ended up with Cheesecake. Because his birthday landed on a Sunday he got to meet with the Bishop for his Baptismal interview. He's excited to be baptized in March in California with all his cousins and grandparents present. The other great thing about turning 8 was he is now a scout. Mammy and Grandpop got him his scout uniform and a compass along with a flashlight. He was super excited. Last night he went to his first scout meeting. He's already passed off everything for his bobcat so he'll get that at his first pack meeting. Good job Kyle.When my parents were here last month Tyler said to my mom, "Mammy, remember when we were younger you use to send all of us a present when it was one of our birthdays?" Hint, hint.... Well, she took the hint and sent Tyler some Origami paper. He's had a ball making all kinds of bugs this week. One night he stayed up late teaching Kyle and Kory how to make a Caterpillar. It was so sweet I couldn't send them to bed. He's really got a knack for teaching and all the caterpillars turned out perfect.
Kory got jumbo balloon's which he loved. He blew them up all night just to let the air come out and then would laugh and laugh.
Trey got this scuba toy! Notice the hugging. He hugged the guy all night.
Makai got a book. It is a perfect book for him all about parts of the body.
Mammy, next time Tyler hints just tell him, "Yeah I do remember that and when you were younger there weren't 5 of you!" That's what I would have said. That was really sweet of you.

It was an extra special day and we can't believe Kyle is 8! It's going to be a fun year!
