I can't believe my Noah is 10!!! That just feels so old! He probably got sick of it, but I couldn't help but keep pointing out that he's double digits now!! So big! So Kelly surprised us all with a cool sign- I was headed downstairs bright and early to make one for him and there it was! Already done! That was cool of her. Noah was in a great mood and loved the birthday cake pancakes I made for him- even though I think he would have preferred crepes. I went out on a limb. Not a good idea. But he was sweet about it. For lunch Nate and I (along with Molly- Jack went to Liam's house) checked Noah out of school to take him to lunch. We went to Applebee's. It was a lot of fun. It's been a long time since we went on a date with Noah, so this was a fun time. I think Noah enjoyed it :). We grabbed his treat for his class, and took him back to school. We had Thai Chicken Soup for dinner (Noah's choice),then we hurried off to the Ice Cream Sandwich place (I keep forgetting what it's called) for our "I'd Love To" jar reward! Yes, it has been a really long time. And yes, we did kill two birds with one stone, celebrating Noah's birthday and our reward at the same time. Go us :). That place was so cute and fun! I loved it! Mine was WAY too sweet for me though, which is really saying a lot. Super fun though. Then we all went to the boys' deacon ball at the church and watched them play. This has been a lot of fun this year, to support them in church ball. I hope we do it for the girls too- good family time. We came home, Noah opened his presents- everyone spoiled him pretty good :)- and then we went to bed. It was a nice day. I hope Noah enjoyed it. He deserves a good birthday, he's such a good boy. I don't know what I would do without him in my life. He brings a sweet calm and a loving peace whenever he's around. I love his humor and his wittiness. He is so smart and so willing to share his knowledge with me. I love learning about animals from him- extinct ones especially. I love his magic tricks and his ability to make those around him feel loved and special. He is a good friend to those around him and puts up with more than most kids would. I just love him! Happy birthday Noah! 1-11-18
We all met up at the South Davis Rec Center for ice skating! Grandpa Hatch, Dawn, Jen, Grandma Ruthie and the two Harris boys beat us there. It was so fun that everyone had skates on and were out on the ice! Minus Grandma Ruthie, but she was cheering everyone on from the stands and helped out with Molly quite a bit. But it was such a fun time!! I loved seeing everyone out there. I loved that the skates fit my feet :) and I was able to get out and skate like I'd been in the last 20 years :) even though it's been at least that long, minus the little bit at Nate's union party a few years back. Noah was a rock star and had a lot of fun zooming around on the ice. Unfortunately, he did get a little too familiar with the ice in the form of landing on his nose- bloody noses are messy when you're wearing gloves! We know that now. He took a little break, but got back out there as soon as he stopped bleeding. Tough kid. Jack skated for a while, that was cool! We even got Molly on skates! She LOVED it!! It was hard to get her off! Erika was awesome! Not a surprise since she spends so much time in her roller blades. Luke struggled again- I am not sure what it is with him :). Just not his thing I guess. But he seemed to have more fun this time and did get pretty good at it by the end. Same with Brad- he improved a lot in that hour and a half. Charity had invited RyLee Mottishaw along, so they were buddies the whole time. They helped with Molly a little and talked and walked around :). Kelly spent a lot of time with Evan and Marshall. They've been having so much fun with their cousins lately- it's been really cool. It was fun to see Grandpa Hatch out on the ice and Jen! They're so much fun and so supportive. I wish Jen's fun could have lasted, but unfortunately, she fell and hurt her knee pretty bad. I hope she's okay. We all went over to Dairy Queen afterwards for ice cream and presents. Unfortunately, our snowman cake had "melted" too much all afternoon and was not going to survive a drive out there, so we left him at home. It was so sad. I was really bummed that things just didn't go well with him at all! I hope Noah wasn't too disappointed. He's a good sport, but hopefully he was really okay. We did do candles and all when we got home, so that was nice. I think he had a fun party overall :). 1-15-18
