Eli's 10th Birthday!

Somehow we had another kid enter the double digits and boy is it hard to believe! We were super excited to celebrate his day even if his celebration was small.  We are pretty fed up with Covid parties at this point but our kids are amazing and have just gone with the flow. But we still pulled out all the stops to try and give him as much fun as we could! 

He requested homemade cinnamon rolls for breakfast!



And then we were off to have some fun.  He isn't big on clothes shopping or eating on his birthday fun day, he would much rather spend the time playing and then picking out his toys. The state was still very shut down which limited what we could do greatly but he is a great sport and was happy to spend the time geo caching!


And once we finally found a store that had his gift he really just wanted to go home and build!  I also had an IOU for Peter for a lego set that was out of stock by Christmas and we found it so both boys were quite happy to start building. 


And then it was time to party! 




Eli, it has been a great joy to watch you grow these last 10 years! From that tiny 5 lb baby boy to who you are today! I love how fun and playful you are, from legos to sports to board games.  I love your soft spirit. As much as I loved you as little boys, it is so fun to watch you grow into a big kid and see more of the young man you are becoming! You have brought so much joy to our lives since the moment you entered it!  We are so blessed to be your parents!
