McKinley’s Birthday

Opening presents. I told her she could wait until later in the day but she wanted to do it as soon as she woke up

Sam enjoyed the cupcake
She chose to have Olive Garden for her birthday dinner. We got it to go, as it’s usually pretty packed on Friday nights.

Lucas’ 10th Birthday

It’s hard for me to believe that I have a 10 year old! I’ve been a father for a decade! Definitely makes me feel old.

Lucas had a party with some of his friends, going to Leo’s place, playing games there and having pizza. We then had family over that night for cake and ice cream, and then he stayed up late watching a movie. We are so lucky to have Lucas in our family. Over the past year he’s been such a great help around the house, doing anything that we ask of him, and being a great example to his siblings.
