Xavier turned 9!!

Xavier's 9th birthday was yesterday! It's so hard to believe it was nine years ago. Sounds so long, yet the time has gone SO fast!! We celebrated at home. Xavier had a breakfast of chocolate chip Eggos covered in whipped cream and chocolate syrup with nine candles on top. We sang Happy Birthday to him and it took him a couple tries to blow out the candles (little brother tried to help also). He opened up his presents from us and then we headed to Toys R Us so he could spend the $50 he got. He picked out a Star Wars Lego spaceship, then we headed to Happy Joe's to eat. The kids played in the arcade a little, we ate, then they came out to sing Happy Birthday to him. He was a little surprised by that! Afterwards, we went to Granny and Papa's so they could watch Drake while the four of us went bowling. Xandria and I are on the Bumper league and Nick and Xavier bowl regular. I'm not much of a bowler, but it's fun to have something for us to do. Then it was back to Granny and Papa's to get Drake who had just finished up three servings of spaghetti and was looking pretty orange!! Nick and Xavier worked on the Legos before we went home and put the kids to bed. It was a great day! I will have to add pictures later, it's not working.
