David's Birthday Celebration Continued...

On Sunday, May 24th, we invited all of David's family to come up to Salt Lake.  Since his cousins were out of town and since Monday was Memorial Day, we had Daniel, Heather, Kathryn, and Kelli sleep over.  Everyone came up in the evening.  Just as David wanted, rather than cake for his birthday, I made hot fudge peanut butter brownie sundaes.  We sang Happy Birthday and then opened presents.  (Sorry I don't have any pictures.  I try to but then forget.  His mom has some so maybe I'll post some later when I get them from her).  

Over the past few months David kept saying he wanted a baseball glove.  Of course, he told me that I wasn't allowed to buy it myself because I know nothing about baseball.  Very true.  I must say, though, I was very proud of the glove I picked out.  It was a super nice glove but I bought at this store that sells broken in gloves so it is already broken in for him.  (Apparently that is a good thing.)  Also, since it was broken in I got it at a much better price than if I bought it new.  Go me!  Here is David with his glove.  When he opened it, he was so surprised!  He didn't think I was going to get him a glove.  He loved it, though!  Yay!

After opening presents, the whole family played a game of Clue.  Congratulations to Kathryn and Kelli - the winning team.  David's parents left after that to go back home.  We all went down to the basketball court and played some Knockout.  I completely suck at Knockout but it was a lot of fun.  Kathryn was very impressive and made it to the final two players almost every single round.  After playing around for a while, we all went and played Rock Band/Guitar Hero for a while.  We ended up staying up until like 1 am.  How sad is it that that is the latest I have stayed up in a really long time?  I am usually in bed at 10 pm - even on weekends!  It was a lot of fun to have everyone over to celebrate David's birthday.  Thanks Driggs Family!!
