Jacob's 7th Birthday

It is crazy to think that SEVEN years ago today Dan and I spent our Thanksgiving at the hospital in Aiken welcoming our little Jacob into the world. I remember feeling so excited when we found out that day was THE day!

This year Jacob had Aunt Hollie, Uncle Cris, Grandma and Grandpa Larry and the Warner family to celebrate with him.

Jacob had Lucky Charms for his breakfast in bed and then spent the morning playing with his new toys: a remote control Air Hog Helicopter and Hot-wheels.

Then Dan took Jake and Tess, Benny and C.C., Hollie and Cris, and Grandma and Grandpa downtown to the Air and Space Museum. They even got to watch the planetarium show. Then everyone came home to pizza, birthday cake and ice cream.

We ended his special day playing on the Wii together. 

Last weekend we had Jacob's Birthday Party.

 I let Jake plan his party. We played the M&M game, Elephant Bowling, Junk-n-your-Trunk, pin the rocket ship on the astronaut, we had a pinata, a treasure hunt, and turkey cupcakes. Jacob loves to learn about space and has read a lot with Dan about BLACK HOLES recently. So that is what Jake decided the pinata should be and Dan and the kids had a great time making it. Dan found lots of fun pictures to tape to it...I especially liked the cow!

I think Jacob had a really fun birthday this year.  He is a very special LOVED boy!
