We celebrated Carson's eight birthday this month, I can't believe my little guy (who's not so little anymore) is 8 years old! I remember his blessing like it was yesterday and now we are getting ready for his baptism this Saturday. We also get to start the new adventure of having a cub scout! Carson is so excited to get baptized and be in cub scouts! What a birthday, two things to look forward to at once. He is even wearing Tom's old cub scout shirt, we just took off all of his old patches and good as new. You gotta love the button all the way to the top look!
For his birthday party this year we let him invite a few friends over for a movie night with pizza and cake and ice cream. He had so much fun and so did his brothers!
We also had a family party with some of his cousins and aunts and uncles. For his birthday we gave him a new suit and both of his grandparents gave him a new set of scriptures and hymn book. I was a little worried that he would be a little disappointed because he wasn't getting anything fun, but he was so thrilled with all of it!
But the thing he wanted to do the most was go to a Jazz game, we let him invite a friend and we took them to the Hornets-Jazz game. We took them to dinner before hand and then we went to the game, they both really enjoyed it and it was fun for us to watch them get so into it.
Tom likes to take the boys out to lunch on their birthday, they get to choose where they want to go and they always choose Chuck E. Cheese, will that ever change?

It is so cute to see him in the cub scout shirt! How cool that he can wear Tom's cub scout shirt, I wish I had the scarf, I must have had the boys share scarves-- That brings back lots of fun memories, working on arrows--we only did scouting of all ages for 20 years. With four boys you will have the scout book memorized!
He was so fun on his birthday, he was totally thrilled with his scriptures.
Wow. You have a kid in cub scouts. Time goes by SO fast!
Happy Birthday Carson. I can't believe how quickly they grow up.
I can't beleive how old he looks! He doesn't even look like a little boy anymore but a grownup one. He is such a cute good boy, I can't believe that little baby and toddler that I loved to come over to see is now so old. Time sure does fly. Can't wait to see you all next week. Love you!
Wow I can't believe you have an 8 year old. Time fly's huh! Cute kids by the way.
Happy Birthday Carson! Looks like he had a pretty special birthday. I'm excited to see him in his sharp new suit. How exciting to get baptized and start scouts! I can't believe how quickly these boys are growing up...crazy!
That was so smart to hold on to that scout shirt! I hope you enjoyed your first pack meeting ;) They are sure different.
Kids grow up so fast - enjoy every moment. Carson is such a cutie!
Carson is 8?! Where has the time gone and what a cutier. Your going to keep an eye on that one the girls are going to be chasing him.
Congratulations to Carson. What a great thing to be 8, baptized, and have such a wonderful family. We think you guys are pretty special too. Kathy & Gil
