The best is always yet to come.-Lucy LarcomCelebration, celebration...of the birthday sorts to my son. He wanted to celebrate with the Sunday brunch at The Grove Park Inn. That is exactly what we did. He told his boys they could eat whatever they wanted and as much as they wanted. They chose to eat cupcakes, donuts, gummy bears...and there was a few chicken nuggets in there, and some bacon.

| See the donut, and cupcake wrapper? |
We all had our fill of good food too. Since it was his birthday, Luke got a very special birthday finish from the restaurant.

After lunch, we went to Luke's where he opened his presents. I help the boys shop for their own gifts, and sometimes they do pick some unusual gifts. His birthday cupcake plays the Happy Birthday song and the candle lights up. After the song plays, you hear someone blowing out the candle and the light goes out on the candle. It's pretty cute. I thought they were going to have the cupcake worn out before they gave it to their dad.
They also bought him a bat mobile, and some hot wheel racers. Gifts I am sure the boys will reclaim later on.

Tate bought him shoes...just like some of his shoes... so they could wear the same kind of shoes...
Funniest thing of all was the gift we gave him...biking gear...only when he opened the boxes there was nothing in them. His dad had wrapped empty boxes. He had removed the gifts, and had put them in another box, but he had forgotten he had done so.
Then there was the solar eclipse...I went to my friend's house where we were able to experience 99.7% of the eclipse.

| In the background you can see it got dark enough for the street lights to come on. It was rather eerie. |

Last of all, here are some pictures of the boys.

| We go to the library once a week. They love reading books |
First day of school
Picking them up from school. These signs have to be in the dashboard.
That's all for now. Be blessed, and encourage one another.
