Happy 10th Birthday Alex...

My baby turned 10!  Wow, where has the time gone?
He wanted to go to Dave n Busters and since it's about 45 minutes away, he got to choose a couple of friends to go with us.  Jake was the only one that ended up going, but it was perfect, they had a great time!
 
 
 
They played LOTS of games:
 
And there was cake, just like Alex wanted (he LOVES "Duck Dynasty" and wanted that picture with that saying):
 
 
 
Their favorite game was a simulated roller coaster game/ride:
 
 The seats shook and they laughed and squealed, drawing quite a crowd!
 
It was such a fun day, so glad that Alex's birthday wishes all came true!

Snow Warrior....

We finally got a snow day from school!  It's only our second one we've had in the five years that we've lived here. 
Alex suited up (Japanese hat and pretend gun included) and went outside to play:
 
 
 
 
It was a fun snow day!

Meet Sherlock Buhls....

Alex had book character day at school.  After much discussion (there aren't many male book characters to dress up as!), he and Bigs decided on Sherlock Holmes.  Alex went came out with two hats on to look like Sherlock's - don't know how that idea came into his head, he amazes us daily!  We couldn't find a magnifying glass, so I made him a paper one and he was fine with it (whew!).
Andy donated an old plaid shirt that I made into a cape.  He was SO cool:
 
 
Love him to pieces!!!
