Jacob is 11! Where does the time go?!?

Well last weekend was quite a birthday bash for Jacob (and exhausting for his parents). Matt joked the entire weekend that it's a birthDAY not a birthWEEKEND, but he is good humored about my partying! The boys had a long weekend for Columbus day so we had 4 friends sleep over on Thursday night. They were all well behaved, got along well, but oh my the house took a toll that night! There was alot of eating junk food, candy, trampoline jumping and of course nerf gun wars!

On Saturday, we had a cookout with family and later a bonfire. Jacob was collecting money to buy himself a DSi, and whaddya know a little birdy told his Aunt Zan and Uncle Jimmy he was saving for one and they got it for him! He was so surprised and happy!

Sunday was his actual birthday, so we gave him our gifts in the morning. Jacob really wanted a bb gun and some wii games! He gave his thank you hugs all around for the gifts! He spent very little of the money he collected for the DSi, just some more video games and drawing supplies.

Overall it was a successful birthday weekend.... happy 11th Jacob!
