EIGHT!!!

EIGHT.... YEARS.... OLD!!!!!

Since Jaden is a HUGE dog lover (I think he will be a vet when he grows up)---

we had his friend birthday party at the HUMANE SOCIETY!!!

It was a GREAT, PERFECT, party for Jaden!

Afterwards, he said... "Mom, that was the best party I have had!"  YEA!!!  SUCCESS!!!

The kids got to do lots of activities including meeting one of the dogs!

 

 

2 of Jaden's friends have brother's that are Tyler's friends! 

 So--Tyler got to have 2 friends at the party too! 

 Steve tells Jaden if he smiles (smirks) like this....he can have anything he wants!

Sweet Boy!!

 

And Jaden was TOO excited that the Humane Society provided DOG plates and napkins!!

HA!!  It's the little things in life!!!

This was the PERFECT party for our Dog-lover little boy!!

Sweet Jaden!!!

It's time to BRAG on JADEN!!!!

Jaden wanted a new dog awhile ago, so he used his money to buy a dog.  (Well, mom and dad paid for a big portion  and said it could be his b-day present...in a few months!!) 

Fast Forward---now it's his birthday!  Most kids (including our other 2 kids) would most likely be disappointed with a present (dog) that they got months ago! 

But, NOT JADEN!!!

He got a few little things from us on his REAL BIRTHDAY---but was thrilled ...

To have his dog...from a few months ago!!!

AND THEN....there's more!!!!

Our kids are big into "re-gifting" to each other on their birthdays!  They find things in their room, wrap it up with tissue and bags, and gift it to each other!  Stinkin funny!!  

Jaden was THRILLED with his "new" shirt, book, animal, and who knows what else Tyler gave him!  He had lots of presents to open and was more than thrilled with his b-day!!!

I am grateful that all of my kids are appreciative of ANYTHING, but especially Jaden.  

They are easy to please and GRATEFUL!!!

For this I am grateful!
