Against all of my wishes - Colin decided to turn 9 this year!
9 just seems so old to me for some reason - but I guess that's what has to happen, right!?
We did donuts for breakfast
And Red Robin for dinner - not sure why Colin has a grumpy face in that picture, but you can tell he was trying hard not to smile :)
This was our first time at Red Robin and the kids loved it!
They even sang to him and he got a really yummy dessert!
We opened up presents - Maggie was SOOO excited to give him these water balloons!
He got a new indoor soccer ball and outdoor soccer cleats
And he also got a new Messi soccer kit which he wears ALL THE TIME!
Then later that weekend we had family over for a swimming pool party - and wouldn't you know, it was kindof rainy and yucky outside that afternoon (it really hasn't rained much all summer - but when we planned an outdoor party...go figure!)
The water was a little chilly but overall everyone had a great time!
We ordered pizza to be delivered at the pool...
The big boy table with some of the cousins
Silly faces...
There was even a swimming race that took place!
Colin's awesome cookie cake (we're slightly obsessed with this new cookie cake place!)
Colin got a stretch armstrong as a gift from the family and everyone had a lot of fun pulling him in all directions possible!
Ring around the rosie...
And my best attempt at a group pic with all the kiddos (and Tiff holding up Arleigh...)
Then the next day Colin had his friends party at a really neat laser tag place
So much fun that even a couple of the Dad's had to join in...
Colin's awesome cookie cake for his friends party...
The kids got to play 3 10-minute games and had a lot of fun!
More water balloons...you can never have enough!
Phew! What an exhausting week of parties and cookie cake and fun!
Happy Birthday Colin!
