Corbin requested a soccer field cake with a Picachu kicking a soccer ball into a goal. Thanks to sone pipe cleaners, a laminator and color copier, his wildest dream came true. It's not the prettiest cake if you ask me but the boys went wild over it.
On the 2nd to last day of school we had an afternoon birthday bash with Jacob F and Conor K, Brodie S, Sully S, Cole G, Layton W, and Soren. they came over after school and we loaded into the big van and went to the movies to see the new Diary of a Wimpy Kid road trip movie. It was pretty funny, even though Alicia Silverstone played the mom and that made me feel really old. We made a pit stop at Allen's for candy and the woman atbthe register wished Corbin happy birthday over the store PA system. The man behind us in the checkout line gave Corbin a high 5 and slipped him a $5 bill! That pretty much blew his mind, coming from a total stranger. Corbin soaked up the birthday love. After the movie, the boys came back to our house for pizza, nachos, cake, and presents. Then, because it was gorgeous outside. They all went outside and ran wild through the cul de sac for almost 2 hours! They played basketball and tag and hide and go seek and ride bikes and scooters and Corbin loved it all. I keep asking him how it feels to be 8, and he is adamant that he's not really 8 until his baptism on the 10th.
Corbin you are one of a kind. You're my sour patch kid. I love all of you. Happy Birthday!
