Surprise!

Nick made a list of things he wanted for Christmas and his birthday and one of the things on his list was a surprise party. Then how was he surprised you ask. He also wanted a suit for church, so we went shopping for that and without plan a little discussion unfolded between Nick and his dad where Nick was made aware that if he got a suit he was not going to get anything else for his birthday. No party. No presents. I felt really bad and gave Chris the biggest stink eye, but he looked at me and grinned, it was all part of his plan!

Chris had Nick's birthday off, so he picked him from school and took him on some errands while I set stuff up and everyone arrived. He did know something was going on when he came to the front door (not knowing it was our house) blindfolded. SURPRISE!! All of our family was their and some of his baseball friends. We had a nacho bar and Nick requested Oreo cake. After he opened presents the boys were off to play some laser tag.

Nick is a special boy and I am glad that we were able to give him a special day!

Happy 9th birthday Nick!! We love you!
