Happy Birthday Jake!

Today is Jake's 7th birthday!  He has been so excited for today.  I brought chocolate cupcakes with chocolate frosting and a reese's peanut butter cup into his class today.  I also gave them a little treat bag to take home.  It was really cute how they did his mini-party.  We passed out treats and then I got to brag about Jake for a minute and then each of the kids from his class came up and said what they liked about Jake.  Almost all the kids said that he is fast, which I thought was so funny.  He really is fast!  A lot of kids said because he was smart, because he always finds patterns (they call him pattern man), because he is kind, Noah said he was his BFL, another said he was his BFF.  One girl said she liked Jake because he was always quite in class and listened.  His teacher said she loved that Jake always listens in class and takes what he learns and applies it to his life.  She had so many great things to say about him.  I am so glad that the people around him love him so much.  He is so special to our family!  For dinner he wanted rice and chicken and by the time he got home from school it had changed to Domino's pizza.  So we all ate outside.  It was fun!  Jake and Brooks B-day's are only 11 days apart so I always combine there birthday parties, but for the actual day of they get to choose what they want for dinner and they get a present from Mom & Dad.  This year Ryan and I decided to by the boys a TV for there room now that they are downstairs.  They weren't to thrilled until it got set up.  Jake said he wanted a $1000.00 dollars.  Crazy kid!  I love you Jake!  Happy Birthday!

Hayden loves Jake! The other day he was over here playing monopoly and he was the only one who cleaned up when I asked! I felt bad so I told him I would clean up the rest!
