Kade's 11th Birthday












It was Kade's special day today! We started the day with presents: a Boomco gun from our family, a gift card from Grandma and Grandpa Bosshardt, and  $30 from Grandma Brown. He was pretty excited about all of that; as evident in all of the photos.  Then Grandma and Grandpa Bosshardt called him to sing Happy Birthday to him before he headed off to school. This year the Valentine's party at school coincided with Kade's birthday and so he felt like it was a big party day for him.  When Kade got home from school he was thrilled to see a sign the Spencers had placed in front of our house that said "Honk it's Kade's Birthday!" They had written a little birthday wish in it and attached markers for others to write on it too. It's such a cute idea!  It was the perfect gift for Kade; he loves to get notes.  This year Kade chose a family party and he wanted to go ice skating so Darryl came home early from work and we headed over to the Midway ice skating rink.  Kade is a pretty good skater and is a little bit of a speed deamon.  Darryl had a fun time getting back in the ice again. He's still got skills. Cole was content to skate this time because he had a little walker to hold on to.  Clint and I enjoyed skating too. Clint did take a couple of hard falls on his wrist and so he was ready to be done earlier than the rest of us.  We were all ready to go to dinner so we had to pry Kade off the ice. He probably would have stayed all night.  Kade's dinner request was sushi so we headed to the local Japanese restaurant.  The sushi wasn't the best I've ever had but Kade still liked it. Clint and Cole didn't love it. We ended the night with a "paintball" splattered cake.  Kade loved the cake and thought it was just perfect. It was such a wonderful day and the best part was knowing Kade felt special today.
