Shawn's birthday

Friday was Shawn's birthday and we celebrated with his favorite dinner (popcorn chicken), cupcakes, and presents from Mommy and Daddy. He liked all his presents especially the video games we got him. Don't laugh but we still have a Nintendo 64. It was sitting out in the garage since we moved to Florida and we brought it out for Shawn to play with. We only had a couple of games that he could play so we thought about finding a few more for him. N64 is so old they don't even sell the games in the used game store anymore. Thank goodness for E-bay!!! We got him 4 games but decided to save one for Easter. The games we gave him on Friday were: Tony Hawk Pro Skater, 1080 Snowboarding, and Cruisin USA. He's pretty much been playing them non-stop unless I make him turn it off, lol.




Yesterday was Shawn's last soccer game. He played great and even scored 2 goals! After the game, they did a small awards ceremony and gave out trophy's. Here's a few pics from Saturday at soccer.




After the game, Carson (the little girl with brown hair) gave Shawn a card. It had a picture of a boy and girl on the front and on the back it said - I love you so much Shon. It was so cute! Of course we teased Shawn that he had a girl friend. Carson and Jordan both like to hug Shawn and wrestle with him. I guess I need to keep an eye on him in a couple of years, lol. I think I'm safe for now because he makes it known that he does NOT like girls.

Saturday afternoon was Shawn's birthday party. It was small this year but very nice. In fact, I kind of liked it a little better than last year because the party room was not as crowded and there was plenty of room to walk around. I think next year we'll probably just have his party at a park so it doesn't matter how many people we invite and how many people can't come. I really hated leaving friends out. Shawn had a great time bouncing with his friends except for one little injury. Shawn and Alex (his cousin) bump into each other and Shawn's ear split where his ear attaches to his head. It looked gross when it happened but after we got home and I cleaned it up better, it wasn't that bad. It may take a while to heal since it's in a bad place but nothing to take him to the doctor for. Shawn got lots of Hot Wheels trick tracks. Oh boy! I've got tracks all over the floors right now. I wish I could find a good storage solution for all the Hot Wheels tracks. Anyway, here's a few pics from his party.
