Owen chose to spend the majority of his 8th birthday in the water. My kids only get friends parties every other year. So this year Owen invited one of his good friends, Spencer, to spend the day with him. Spencer came over to play and have lunch (fancy mac n cheese) and then we headed over to Ivy Wild to swim all afternoon. Kortney and her girls joined us in an attempt to keep my girls busy while we played at the pool.
The boys had a blast riding the slides and wrestling all afternoon.
That evening, after getting some Sonic drinks and Little Caesars to rehydrate and refuel, we headed over to my parents for more swimming and cake and ice cream.
Owen got all set for church and scouts and was fully prepped for his baptism. Plus he got some cool guns. Because apparently boys like guns and shooting things.
(Don't you love how Emmie finds a way to weasel her way into most picutres :)
I love how excited he is for scouts and all that being 8 allows him to do. He is one of the last boys in his grade to turn 8 and has been anxious to join them in scouts and all of their fun all year!

I love all your new posts!! Happy birthday Owen!
We were wondering if turning 8 was the same as turning 19 with all the practical gifts and such? He'll have so much fun in Scouts!
