Will's Birthday

Will turned seven on March 18th! 

I have mentioned many times how funny and witty he is.  He adds so much joy and comedy to our family.  He is also a real thinker, always wondering about things and thinking up questions.  He has the best manners out of all of the kids and we love his willingness to try anything once.  He even tried sushi as a 5 year old and has loved it ever since.  He is open-minded and accepting of things.  When he gets really upset or hurt, he is very tough and only cries for a minute...he can get over things really easy.

Here he is rock climbing.  He was so proud that he made it all of the way to the top and rang the bell!  He's not quite as athletic and coordinated in team sports like his big brother, but when he sets his mind to something he is totally awesome!  What he lacks in physical ability, he more than makes up mentally.  He has his mind set on starting golf lessons and "keyboard" lessons this spring and we know that these are right up his alley.

Here, we are celebrating his birthday at the cabin (along with Quincy and Bode's):

 

Showing his cool new wallet made out of duct tape.  Of course, he has more cash to put in it than any of us!

Here, we are celebrating his and "Grandpa Judy's" birthday! 

Grandma had this huge tulip candle that played a melody once it burned for a minute.  But it was almost a minute too late because it malfunctioned and almost started the whole cake on fire!  Look at everyone's faces!

After we came home from Las Vegas, we took some of his friends to Boondocks for arcade games, laser tag, and mini-golf.  He absolutely reminded us that Millie and Sambo got to do something fun with their friends for his birthday, so we had to be fair :)

 Quincy in on the action:

 With these wild boys, we were lucky to walk away with only one injury!  His friend Van had a mishap with the door and cut his head.  He had to get stitches!

Here's baby Will on his birth day...look how happy his brother and sister are!

We LOVE you Great Man!
