Happy Birthday, Danny!

Yesterday was Danny's 8th birthday! The day began with a note for Brad and I (can you tell he's really into notes these days?)

SIDE 1:


SIDE 2:So for those of you still trying to learn to read "Danny", that's:

Side 1:
"List of things I want. Turn it around, Dad."

Side 2:
Super Mario Galaxy 2 (a Wii game)
DS (Nintendo hand-held gaming system)
DSi (fancier Nintendo hand-held gaming system)
Hot Wheels
Guys
Star Wars Movies
Thanks

I don't know what was more funny, the fact that he actually thought we'd get him a DS and a DSI or the cursory "thanks" at the bottom of the note. Pretty cute. In the end, he did get a few things off his list and he was a happy boy!

Here's the birthday boy pre-present-opening with Little Jake (cousin), Big Jake and Lyssie. The Humphreys came over for a little family birthday party, which was so nice of them because it's was the night before the first day of school - a busy evening for everybody.

And here he is blowing out his candles with a very focused "Little Jake" looking on.


WE SURE LOVE OUR DANNY BOY!
