Troy Turns 6!

On Monday we celebrated six years of life with Troy. The theme of choice this year was Star Wars. Troy has not yet had a "kid" birthday party and was insistent that this was the year for one. We decided to have it in a local park after supper with Scott leading the boys in some games. As we were putting the guest list together we realized what a social guy our son is! We ended up with 14 of his closest friends which was a mixture of boys from school, church, the neighborhood and Grandma R's house. We were blessed with a beautiful evening and had a great time. Since Troy doesn't have school today he is spending the morning checking out all his wonderful new toys! (A 6 year old's dream!) We are so thankful for our youngest child-a son. God has blessed him with drive which he often uses in sports and now in his reading and school work. We love you Troy!
