We just celebrated Cook's 11th birthday and honestly I can't even imagine where the last decade has gone...when did my little baby Cookie turn into this amazingly clever and intelligent young man??!! Well anyway, he had a party and invited some of his new Seward friends over for the afternoon. There was a lot of gaming, including Minecraft and Kid Icarus. Almost every kid brought an ipod, DS, or laptop, and at one point there was one screen on for each kid. It was weird to me, but that's because I'm old.
Cook picked out Angry Birds balloons. Ama thought they were pretty cool, too.
Cook had planned on having a water balloon battle for a birthday party activity, and we spent the day or two before the party blowing up a couple hundred of them. The day of the party it was rainy and REALLY cold, but the boys (and Ama) went ahead and did it anyway. It ended up being fun in spite of the terrible weather, although some of the kids almost froze to death.
Grandpa and Grandma were here for his birthday. Here you see Grandpa attempting to organize some kind of a game or contest with the water balloons. His attempt only lasted a minute before he realized they were all too wild and wound up to pay attention. Ha!
Happy birthday, sweet boy! I love you!
