Cole's 8th Birthday

Back in June, we celebrated Cole's 8th birthday. Cole started his day with presents from us. Legos and videogames were on his list. He wanted to just hang out at home on his birthday (i.e., play his new videogame and build Legos) and requested KFC for lunch. In the afternoon, Curt took the boys for a swim at our neighborhood pool. Two of Cole's best buddies were at the pool, so that was a nice surprise.

A new bike was a surprise.

Cole had four friends spend the night for his birthday celebration. Such a great group of boys! They were LOUD, but got along really well and had a fun time together.

After all the boys left, we continued to celebrate Cole with family. Nana, Papa, Grammy, Aunt Mariah, Aunt Shannon, and Josh came.

I think Cole got most of his wishes for his birthday.

We had so much fun celebrating Cole. It's hard to believe he's already 8 years old. Love him so much!
