Double Digits for Preston!!

Today was finally the day this little guy hit double digits!  After a month of celebrating so many things, today was HIS day!!  Of course, he wanted to start opening gifts as soon as he got out of bed. :) One of his favorites was the long-awaited laminator!

After opening most of his gifts, it was time to head to Camp Invention.  He has been a camper (and Savannah a counselor) all week and today was his last day.  When I went to pick him up, this is the loot he had collected.

Then it was straight to Chuck E Cheese, to keep our tradition alive.

We all had so much fun and enjoyed our 45 minutes of arcade free play.

Our next mode of celebration was of course dinner at Red Robin!  Dad met us there after work to enjoy some yummy burgers and of course the birthday song and free ice cream treat.  Can you tell Preston was enjoying himself?

Then it was back home to finish opening gifts and for some more yummy dessert and a birthday song.

This little peanut is such a delight to our family.  He is non-stop energy and entertainment.  He continues to question everything as a way of learning and can be quite the little worrier if the rules aren't being followed!  He is still passionate about playing soccer, loves a good book, is a beast on the Ninja warrior line, he can make a friend with just about anyone anywhere, and would probably live outside if he could.  His favorite subject is still math (and recess). Preston continues to live life at full speed with an amazingly generous heart for others.  I think he would follow Savannah to the end of the world so I'm thankful she still is content playing with him from time to time.  So, happy double digits buddy!  We love you so much!!

Just for fun here are some of our family favorites of Preston's verbiage:

Don't put that in the disposable! (disposal)
Can I spray some air refreshener? (refresher)
Aren't you supposed to put the flour in the shifter? (sifter)
