Asher's 10th


Happy happy 10th birthday to my Asher!  He was really anticipating this one since it put him squarely into the double digits.  Best of all he was touting his new status as a "pre-teen" to anyone within earshot.  We all cracked up over this one.  He is really, really, REALLY excited to be a pre-teen.  And now I'm also a little scared.  Anything with the word 'teen' in it strikes a little ping of fear into me. Ouch.


We were in Utah for his big day this year, and so we celebrated with extended family too, which is always a treat.  Asher chose to go to Chili's for lunch.  He had fond memories of doing it a year or two ago and loves that the staff comes and sings!  After that it was presents and a chocolate chip cookie cake (again, Asher's choice) at Grandma's house. Yum!  He had fun opening presents and blowing out candles, especially since some of the cousins were there.


That night all the boys went to a Jazz game for Asher's big day.  FUN.  This boy is a sports NUT so it was total awesomeness for him to hit an NBA game.  They had a great time too.  They came back with a t-shirt, and a ball that they somehow won. Impressive!  All in all they had a fantastic time at the game and now I think we have some converted Jazz fans, ha!
 

Happy Birthday to our Ash-man.  We sure do love this boy and can't believe the amazing person he's growing into.  This boy is kind hearted, loving, funny, smart, athletic, creative.  He's also an awesome big brother who plays with his younger brother and helps out all the time.  Lucky us that he's ours.  Love you lots buddy!
