Justin's Birthday party!

October 24th 2009

Today we held Justin's birthday party. He wanted to do a sport theme so we played all kinds of sports with all his friends. He had 27 kids come to his party and they all had a lot of fun! I had bowling, t-ball, golf, punching balls, hopscotch, soccer, football, dodge ball on the tramp, frisbee, tag, hide and seek, etc. set up for the kids to play. It was fun to watch them PLAY BALL and have fun! I was just happy we had good weather!

Playing games with Rob. He is so good with kids, they loved playing with him!
