2nd season - LAST game of the winter

Our last game of the 2nd Season was against Lynden - talk about a tough game!  The boys had all been working so hard over the past few weeks and really learned a lot through the tournament and games... and it all showed during this game.  They played so well as a team, made lots of passes, and were SO CLOSE to beating Lynden. It came down to the wire and we could not have been more proud!  Wayne is quite the hustler out there, and is feisty on defense.  I am not sure how many more of these intense, down to the buzzer games I can take though!  Thanks to everyone who made it out to his games throughout the season - it means so much to him to hear you cheering him on!

Everything is awesome! Everything is cool when you're part of the team!

We all went to the "Lego Movie" for Wayne's birthday (minus Addison) and had a good time eating through 2 LARGE popcorns and watching the movie together.  For DAYS after the boys were sucked back into their Lego's full force...  Determined to build a town as big as the movie!  There were sleepovers and hours spent playing and building together... and GETTING ALONG.  I love Legos!  :-)

Great to be 8!

8 years ago this sweet and precious boy entered this world.  What a blessing!  We can't belive how quickly he is growing up.  He is kind, thoughtful, independent, hard working, funny, silly, smart and OH so many more things.  I am so grateful for him!!!  We had a great time celebrating his birthday over the weekend, and on Tuesday as well.  A highlight had to be when I brought SIX pizzas to his class with 4 crazy breads and his class ate it ALL!  Wow.  Hungry 2nd graders.  And they had just had lunch!  Another highlight?  Picking out his fish and fish tank and getting it set up.  Tiger, Kai, Max (who was soon followed by Max II) and Blackie.  They are pretty cool fish.  He can even take care of them and clean the tank himself.  Grandma brought him an ENTIRE Mocha Cake on his birthday for breakfast.  Seriously?  He is LOVED!  We topped the day off with a cruise around the driveway on his new motorized scooter.  

Check out the new room!

With Wayne's 8th birthday just around the corner we decided to do a makeover on his room to start of the year right.  It was fun to talk to him about what he loves - BASKETBALL and how we could include that in his room, and still have it more big kid/a room he can grow in to.  He's growing up so fast!  He is SUCH a neat kid (and yes, I know that I am biased.)  Diligent, sweet, loving, smart, hard working, compassionate, silly, cute = WAYNE!  Enjoy your room buddy!
