Happy 35th Robert!
We started Bob's special day early at Payton's soccer game. She really wanted to score a goal for her dad on his birthday. She worked hard and ended up with two goals! Way to go, Pay! We went home and Robert took a little snoozer. The kids and I packed the car with his presents, blankets, and a big picnic. After he woke up we headed to the park to chow. On the way we asked him what his favorite birthday memories were. He said he remembered his Superman cake his mom made him one year, and when he turned 8 he was given his very first bike!
At the park the kids gave him their presents they picked out and wrapped just for him. Pay picked out a #1 Dad key chain and a book. Avery picked out his favorite soda. Owen wanted to get him something "Boise State!" , so he chose a bronco t-shirt. I know, all sweet gifts anyone would be dying to receive right?!
After the gifts were unwrapped we took off to the hills for our first hike. The kids did great. They had so much fun making it to the top and enjoying the amazing views of the city from so far up! We spent a lot of time up there climbing the rocks, pointing out different locations, and RESTING from the climb.
Later we headed home to watch the Boise State football game. The kids are just getting their pajamas on and Robert and I are going to go pick up some friends and head out for dessert. Clint and Amy are coming to sit with the kids while we hit the town to celebrate Robert's big day. It's been a lot of fun. Birthdays are a great way to remind us to celebrate life and loved ones, and Robert we love, love, be loving you much, much, lots of loving you!
Owen, Avery, Payton and Kristi
