Gavin is 7 years old!

Well it is hard to believe Gavin is 7 years old now. We started the morning off bright and early. Gavin wanted to open all but 3 of his presents in the morning so we gathered together in the living room. Sure does not seem like he got much to open but I have explained that he is getting older now and his presents are more expensive.

We left his bike in Indiana when we moved here. He had outgrown it anyways. So we let him pick out a new bike and he got it yesterday. It is a Mongoose. From Grandma Sally and Grandpa Gordon he got two sets of Magnetix, a Game Boy game, clothes and a book. From Mom and Dad he got a new Nintendo DS game, 2 game cube games, Spongebob DVD, a vibrating/noise maker gun, books and the bike.

Gavin had his choice of parties. He could do bowling or Burger King and invite his entire class or he could have a sleep over and invite a few friends. He chose a sleep over. There were a lot of people here throughout the night. Dee and her sons Tizoc (who stayed) and Jaydee. Lois with her two kids Harley and Savannah (both stayed), Thomas and his wife Song...their three kiddos...James, Andrea and Zach (he stayed), Craig, Tanya and their two kiddos Abbie and Trevor (both stayed) and of course our three kiddos and us. So a total of 20 people here. We had 5 pizzas, loads of drinks and snacks.

Clockwise from the top..Harley, gavin, Savannah, Maddie, Abbie and Trevor.

After eating Gavin opened presents. Left to right...Abbie, Trevor, Maddie and Gavin.

Gavin got some Yu-Gi-Oh cards...really neat because they are Korean.

With all the kids you know someone would have to get hurt. Well poor Zach got his finger stuck in a door. He had a quick trip to the ER and was back again. Here he is giving the finger LOL with Harley and Craig in the background.

Happy Birthday to you! Harley, Court, Gavin, Savannah and Maddie.

All the kids having cake and ice cream...yum!

Gavin and Trevor really hit it off well and Trevor is a really great kid.

I am not sure what time the boys finally went to sleep. I know I came out at 1 am and told them to be quiet. This was taken around 6 am.

Another shot of the boys sleeping...hard to tell there is four of them jumbled all together.

When I went to bed Abbie and Maddie were sleeping princesses together. Savannah was sleeping in the living room with the boys.

When I woke up Maddie and Savannah were in the bed and Abbie was on the floor.

It is morning now and everyone is up. The girls are all dressed and playing princesses. They boys are playing video games. I think it was a success as far as parties go!
