Owen is 7

We celebrated Owen's 7th birthday last weekend.  Owen was so excited about his birthday this year- way more than in years past.  He started a countdown to the big day and was sure to remind us each morning how many days were left until his birthday. When his day finally arrived, the first thing out of his mouth after waking up was "today is my birthday".
As usual, we had our family over for cake and ice cream.  It was great to see everyone.  Owen wanted a Star Wars themed cake this year, and Aunt Hannah was glad to help out with that.  Owen's birthday also gave us an opportunity to use the beautiful table runner that Aunt Connie sent.  It is so festive and looked great on the table.





 After the cake and ice cream, it was time to open gifts.  Owen received so many nice things including clothes, baseball stuff, and video game figures.  A lot of folks went in together and got him a basketball goal, which I know he will use a lot in the future.

I think that Owen had a great day overall.  We sure do love that boy, and we are very pleased with the young man that he is becoming.
