owen's birthday

yesterday was owen's birthday. he has been so excited for this day to come. kevin said he came into our room twice that morning to see if it was birthday time yet. once at 2 am and then at 5am! it was better than christmas.

all owen asked for this year was a kick ball and some legos. so, we surprised him with his own set of golf clubs. he was so shocked! i think we made a good choice. he carries this bag around with his all.day.long!

kevin also got him a sketch pad and a book about how to sketch. kevin really enjoyed drawing and art in junior high and high school and will still do some drawings if the boys ask. so, when owen started showing some interest it only made sense to get him started.

after breakfast the boys took off to the golf course to do a par 3 course. they had a great time! 

after golfing it was mcdonald's for lunch. then we hit the movie theater to watch ice age 3.

once we got back home owen spent his time building his new lego sets, playing his new lego playstation game, and hitting some balls and kicking his new kick ball.  

this kid loves anything lego.

we had pizza for dinner and then did some cake and ice cream later that night.

i was kind of planning on doing a golf cake and i took the kids to zurchers to pick up a couple things the day before and owen saw the angry bird birthday section. he has been playing the space edition all week so it all of a sudden made sense to do an angry bird cake. i asked owen which he liked more and he said "i kind of favor the black one. he blows up!" so...we made the black one. 

owen loved it!

happy birthday to our growing owen!
