Colin's 9th Birthday!

Colin is 9!!!  

We started off his birthday with coffee cake and presents for his basketball themed birthday. 

Proof how much Eli has grown in the last month...Mother's Day I could rest my chin on the top of his head.
 

We spent the morning playing; Alison got Colin a punching bag :)

For lunch, we had a Chick-fil-A picnic.

Then we went to Dave and Buster's.  We have never been there, but Colin said he wanted to play ski ball and it turned out to be a really fun afternoon.

Eli tried the virtual reality Star Wars game...which he has asked every day to go back and play :)

Oh the memories of air hockey!  It was fun to watch the kids play.

We played a little Spot It before dinner.

He requested lamb kabobs with a tomato sauce, saffron rice and mashed potatoes.

Another year for an Oreo cake.

 

We ended our day of celebration with root beer floats.

 

9 sure is great and I can't wait to see what this year holds.

Happy Birthday, Colin!  We love you so much!
