Grandpa and I couldn't wait for Friday to come so that we could have our special 8th birthday celebration with Zander! He had such a cool birthday with his family - and got a real DRILL for his birthday (he likes to be like his dad), so when we went to visit them, Zander had already built fences, ladders, signs and everything else he could think of with boards that were around their acre. It was so cool! Zander had even made a "fix-it handyman" sign to post in front of their home (with Ryan's business phone number on it)
Zander chose his favorite restaurant, Red Robin, to eat at, and they treated him royally! He tried the 50cent "claw" arcade game that tried to pick up stuffed animals until grandma's change was gone. while we waited for food. The waiters treated him royally and sang their best clapping happy birthday song when they brought his hot fudge sundae!
A memory picture of Zander with Grandpa - the bikes looked like a good idea until he sat on the sharp iron seat and his fat-free bottom end smarted a little!
Yep, after dinner it was Zander's choice to come to our home and play some serious Wii games with us. Grandma is always the loser - and wore out before these two! After Wii tournaments we took Zander home - and had a ball playing Cranium Hullabaloo with Zander, Devanie, Roxie and Maddaux. It was loud and fun - and we finally quit when Roxie was dripping with sweat from head to toe. Such a fun day! Now we are excitedly awaiting MAY 8 at 9 am for ZANDER'S BAPTISM DAY! It is at the chapel (Stake Center) here by our home. We love you ZANDER!
