Riley turns 7





Today is Riley's 7th birthday. Since today is Sunday we had his party yesterday. He requested that we do his party at the Pioneer park. It was a very nice day for an outside party. We took water guns and the kids all got wet which felt very nice. We also did a pinata and of course they played at the park. He wanted a Spiderman birthday. His cake was really cool. He was very excited to have some friends come. It's hard when your birthday is in the summer because so many people go out of town. BUT only 3 out of the 10 kids didn't come. Besides what his friends got him, this year he asked for a bike, a spiderman wii game and a Betta fish. We did get him a bike but not a spiderman wii game. Insead he got a cars and wall-e wii games. He was very excited. This morning on his actual birthday he got his Betta fish. He LOVES it. He named him Larry:-D Riley is such a sweet boy. He is SO smart and LOVES to learn. Russ took him out yesterday to ride his new bike. This is his first bike and it doesn't have training wheels. Russ helped him ride for about 30 mins and he already has it. He just needs to practice more. Way to go buddy. He enjoys playing T-ball and is getting better at hitting and catching. He for the most part is a joy to have in our family. We love him so much and feel very honored to be his parents. His sisters adore him too. HaPpY bIrThDaY rILeY!!! We sure do love you.
