Happy 9th Birthday to our sweet guy!
How is he 9?
Jake is the most wonderful boy there is. He is sweet, thoughtful, smart, has a huge heart, is funny, is a snuggle bug, is a great big brother (when he wants to be) and the list goes on and on!
The birthday began with opening cards and
enjoying a birthday donut!
Jake's birthday celebration actually began with a sleepover the weekend before with BFF Dylan who was going to be out of town during his party. I didn't get any great pictures but here is a picture from earlier this Fall.
The last soccer practice of the year was on Jake's birthday and he wanted to be there with his team. So after soccer we headed to one of our favorite birthday spots in Austin, Chez Zee. It was closed for a private party and the 2-3 other places we went next were all crazy busy! I guess everyone wanted to go out to celebrate Jake's birthday!
So after much debate we ended up at the Cheesecake Factory and Jake couldn't have been happier. After dinner when we were Facetiming with Auntie Rachel he told her all about dinner.
"Auntie Rachel, we went to this really nice place for dinner. It's called the Cheesecake Factory. Have you been?"
Friday after school we took Jake and four friends to see "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" at the Alamo Draft House. They thought it was hysterical to write crazy things on the order cards for the server. Oh, 9 year old boys! They were mesmerized by the movie (as was I) and they may have eaten the theater out of popcorn!
After the movie we headed to pizza and met up with the parents who wanted to join us! Jake loved it and loved running around with his crew! I loved not having 40 people at my house!
And he was very excited about his gift from Bubba, a new laptop that is all his (although usuage is still based on mom & dad's rules!)
Happy Birthday! We love you, Jake!
