Pizza and a Movie

Brendan wanted to celebrate his 10th birthday by eating pizza and watching a movie. He had scout camp on his birthday but he was free that evening to party at Pizza Madness. Cousins, Aunts, Uncles, and Grandma were all there. They let us bring in our own cake (Richard's creation-cherry chocolate). Location parties are great! No clean-up. The movie had to wait a couple of days until he had a break from camp. He wanted to see Star Trek and it was surprisingly good.

I can't believe he is 10. Pretty soon I'll have two babysitters in the house. I just need to teach them how to change diapers.

Short Videos

Brendan's end of year baseball party was at a coach's house. They had a really cool pool with a rock to jump off of. Jordan and Brendan were one of the few who did tricks off the rock.
Jacob just started making this funny noise with his throat as he sticks out his tongue. It is usually pretty funny but I have never been able to catch it on video. I finally got a snippet of it. It may be the best I ever get recorded.

Hello, my name is Sonic

We love Sonic at our house. How could we not, look at that face. He also gets things done at very high speeds-Sonic speed.

Dylan has been calling himself Sonic for awhile now. It is not a daily thing but still quite often. When we were on vacation in CA he had people calling him Sonic and we found the best shirt while we were there at Target. The Sonic shirt. Dylan was walking around, found it and told me to get it (very good product placement I guess). It was perfect though and I had to get it. He wants to wear it all the time. The other day he was meeting one of our new neighbors for the first time. She asked him what his name was and he said "Sonic." She either didn't understand him or was surprised by the name so she asked me what his name was. Then I had to explain the situation so she didn't think I was crazy for naming my son Sonic.
