a ninth birthday that got lost in the following madness

David had a wonderful week of birthday celebration this year (August).  We tried something different and celebrated with one gift everyday until the final (actual) day of his birthday.  He had a great time and got to "play" with the gift of the day before the next one arrived. 

Gram and GDaddy kicked it all off by coming a week before the birthday.  We celebrated with cake and a present from them. 

Each day thereafter added another gift. (the wrappings this year didn't amount to much.  Sorry, D!)  At least we know my son changes his clothes each day.  ;)  He received an assortment of books, a Star Wars watch, legos, a video game, a light remote control for nightside, books on cd, a claw grabber, and a huge nerf gun to add to his far-too-vast collection. 

Happy Belated Birthday, son!  We are so proud of you!
