All Cody wanted for his birthday was to be with Duncan and Charlie. So we made a quick weekend trip down to Boise.
The Rich's set up their tent in the backyard and all the kids got to watch a movie and sleep out there with Grandpa Dean.
Our poor kids kept running into the glass door at full speed thinking there wasn't a door there. We'd get one child picked up off the floor and another would smack the door. Finally, Sara gave the kids dry erase markers and had them write all over the glass so they could see it better and hopefully help them keep the rest of their brain cells. They wrote "Danger" and "STOP" and all kinds of funny things.
Bob and Steve were able to sneak in a ride on Saturday morning.
Play-doh!
Aunt Sara helped the girls make their animals that they sleep with out of play-doh. Here is Lucky.
And here's Berta.
Duncan and Cody made a fort.
Water fight!!
Instead of going straight for Grandpa, Liv stooped to a new low: filling grandpa's shoes with water.
Birthday pizza. Papa John's is Cody's favorite.
And Aunt Sara made a yellow cake with chocolate frosting at Cody's request.
All the kids listened really well during family scriptures.
Grandpa Dean brought all kinds of wood scraps for the kids to glue together and make mini tree houses.
Duncan and Kylee
After church we ate a quick dinner and headed home. On the way home we listened to some episodes of "Conversations" on the Mormon Channel and had some awesome discussions as a family. It was a fun ride home.
Thanks to the Rich's for making Cody's 10th birthday a great one!!
