Nathan really wanted a pool party this year, with his friends. And I have to admit we don't always have friends parties, for various reasons, one being we are usually in Montreal, Nathan has a fracture, kids are sick, etc. etc. However this year we did! It was important to our Nate boy that Howard was home, so we quickly planned his party for the day after we returned from Montreal. It was pretty basic! Swimming, pizza and an ice cream cake. All the boys were really well behaved and I think they all had a great time. :)
Our great big 12 year old! Well he will be 12 on March 25

I seem to rarely be in any of the birthday pictures....so here the "original" 3 are.:) Ugh totally bad picture of me! But Whatever!
Here are the group of boys in the hot tub... 12 is such a funny age! They want to be treated like an adult yet they love to play like little boys! :) This group of young men are so great! Most of them attend our church, and both Nate and Josh have a wonderful time when they all get together.
The birthday boy, makin a splash!
Now that looks like alot of fun! I'm happy he got to spend time with his friends. And just looking at that hottub makes me want to be there too!
ReplyDeleteHappy 12th Birthday Nate - you're a preteen now, well soon! There is no doubt you are a very loved boy. Glad you got some special time with your Mommy last week too!

PS - Sweet photo of you three together, the original three like you say! That's great! :)
Happy Birthday Nate! Next year you will have a teenager on your hands, but he sounds like such a great kid, I am sure it will be a joy!
ReplyDeleteAnd you look great in that photo. I am glad he was able to have such a great party.
Hi there Kim, Happened to come across your blog on through the Drinkwaters. It's so nice to meet other people from Canada. We are from PEI. Waiting for LCS and TA for our second child from China.
