Luke’s 10th Birthday

Since Luke’s birthday was going to be over our Thanksgiving Trip to St. George, we asked him if he wanted an early birthday celebration at home, or if he wanted us to bring his presents on the trip.  He picked an early celebration.  He did not know, however, when it would be.  On a Friday afternoon (right after Katie’s pin removal surgery) we decided to surprise him.  When he got home from school at 4:45 the presents were out and ready.  He was pretty excited!

Matthew gave him a BB-9E figurine… a new droid from the new movie coming out in December.

From Emily and Megan he got some more figurines – Luke Skywalker, Rey, Chewy and BB8.  : )

From Katie he got the new  SPIDERMAN movie – which he hadn’t seen.  From Mom and Dad he got ROUGE ONE for iTunes and tickets to see STAR WARS The Last Jedi in the theater when it comes out! He also got a new Star Wars T-shirt that didn’t quite get here in time, and a Winter Coat!   Fun to celebrate with this excited and happy kid.  

As soon as the presents were opened Dad ordered pizza from Marco’s, Luke and I went down to Nothing Bundt Cakes and picked out a double chocolate chip cake (so good!) and we watched SPIDERMAN.  Such a fun family night!
