Luke's Lego Birthday

We had a fun birthday weekend a couple of weeks ago to celebrate Luke's 8th birthday. He picked a Lego theme this year, which was a lot of fun to decorate with! He had a party with some friends from school on Friday evening. We let him invite 5 boys, but only 3 could make it, which was quite doable. We had a lego building contest and then they raced the cars that they had made. We also played a lego beanbag game, ate pizza and cake and the boys had fun just running around and playing. We were supposed to have his party with my family on Saturday afternoon, but we finally got some snow around here so we postponed the party until Sunday. We had lunch together since most of us had Superbowl plans that evening! On a fun sidenote, Luke's birthday was on Superbowl Sunday and the Superbowl was played at Lucas Oil stadium this year! We are so proud of the young man that Lucas is becoming and are thankful each and every day that God blessed our family with him.

Since we couldn't party on Saturday, they spent a good chunk of time outdoors. They worked together to build this snowman. I was too lazy to put on my boots and coat to get a better picture, so this is as good as it gets.:)

A new Lego ds game! He also received one from Ryan's parents, so guess what he's been busy doing lately?

His gift from us was a new bike. He had outgrown the one he had been riding, so we took him to pick out a new one.
