Tanner Celebrates


I made it through the weekend! Tanner got to have his friends over for his “real” birthday on Friday to celebrate turning 9! Being a person that hates holidays, birthdays, and anything else that requires a celebration, there aren’t that many pictures. Tanner and his friends got to have a pizza party and a sundae bar, which I totally forgot to take pictures of. Tanner didn’t want to play kid games at his party, so instead they got to play football outside in the snow. He probably isn’t going to have any friends anymore, once their parents find out!

Watching Tanner open his presents was one of the funniest things I have ever seen because four out of the six kids that were there gave him a football. You would have thought this kid had the worst mother and she never bought him any sort of ball. Tanner has more footballs, basketballs, baseballs, golf balls and tennis balls than any other kid in this world. Yes, my kid LOVES sports. Hopefully, he won’t see being short as a downfall! Here are a few more pictures of the gang! I do however have to be thankful for the friends that Tanner does have. He has the best bunch of little pals ever.

Notice that all the kids have wet pants and shirts! Tyler came in on the injured list and to my suprise not one of the kids were cold! Well, that is what I was told.
