Kyle's Birthday!

Kyle turned 29 this year!  Holy Moly!  We are getting old.  We talked about Daddy's birthday coming for the whole week.  Grant thoroughly enjoyed getting ready for his Dad's birthday.  We put up streamers and balloons Saturday morning before Daddy woke up.  It was so funny because Grant was so excited to be part of the birthday celebration he woke Dad up long before we had any of the decorations up.  Kyle was a good sport and pretended to be asleep for about 45 minutes. Grant thought it was so cool to go wake up his Dad and tell him Happy Birthday!



Grant was so excited for Dad to open his presents.  He made Kyle open them as soon as everyone was dressed.


Grant or any child for that matter is not great at keeping secrets.  He just doesn't get it.  So this year I let Grant get Kyle the two things Kyle already knew about.  He needed a swim suit and we were all together when Ky picked it out.  Grant was so pleased when his Dad opened it.  We have a pool at our apartment complex and now we can all go swimming!



Grant also helped Dad pick out this new bike helmet.  Kyle is getting a bike so we can go on family bike rides.  Grant wrote "Dad" on the card all by himself.  He was so proud of himself.  He is so smart!  

Kyle wanted to get a new reel for his new fly rod.  We went on a little joy ride.  We were able to get the reel he wanted on a very sweet deal!  Kyle was more than thrilled.  He has been shopping for this particular reel for a while and was pleased to finally find it.

We went out to lunch at Red Robin!  They were handing out balloons to the kids and Grant so sweetly got his Dad a green balloon for his birthday.  

It would've been nice to have extended family here to celebrate with us.  We will get to see them soon!  I have to say that having  Grant around is so much fun.  He got so into Dad's birthday.  He has really started catching on to things lately and it was nice to see him so excited about someone else's birthday.
