Jake's Big Day!

We made Jake's birthday, his day! He got to decide what he wanted to do and what he wanted to eat. We had German pancakes and bacon for breakfast. He wanted to go to the YMCA to play basketball with Travis and his bud, Benj and then swimming at the YMCA with all of us. He also wanted to go to Red Robin for dinner with Benj's family, the Tanuvasas. While we were at dinner we made the spontaneous decision to drive to Boise that night to visit the Meikle's. We called the Meikles at 6:30 our time to see what they had going on since we both had Spring Break and decided to leave an hour later to drive there. We got to Boise just before 4am Boise time. It was a great trip and Jake thought it was an awesome birthday surprise.

Opening his presents. Notice the U of U shirt. Go UTES!

I do not know what Travis and the girls are doing on the counter, I guess we ran out of chairs to sit in.

Jake loved it when everyone sang to him.

Stay tuned for pictures from his birthday party, it is a "Sports Party" and is happening next week when Travis is home to help.
