Officially 10!


It's funny how much you get to celebrate your birthday (when you are younger) when it doesn't land on a weekend. Austin started celebrating his birthday on Thursday the 21st when he received his first gift from Aunt Emi and Uncle Leo (Mario Kart for DS) in the mail. Then Friday to Saturday was his party with us. Then Saturday to Sunday he was with his dad and had a party there. Then Monday we had to celebrate again since it was his actual birthday! That's when Brian and I gave him our gifts. Brian picked him out a PS3 racing game and I got him a lego set. Our biggest gift of all though was a brochure I had designed for him telling him that in less than a month we will be flying out to Orlando, FL and visiting Disney World. In the brochure are pictures of our hotel and places we are going to visit while we are there. When he saw it he got VERY excited and tells everybody we see that he is going to Florida soon. I am so glad we didn't tell him before summer began...he would have driven us crazy! Also that night he got to pick what was for dinner. He chose to have breakfast food-easy enough! And later on Grandma and Grandpa Uglum came to give him their gift-a RC helicopter.
But the fun doesn't stop there...he still gets to celebrate this weekend over labor day at the river with the rest of the family. And of course, he still has a present coming from Grandma and Grandpa Smith! I think he is a bit spoiled!
