McKay's Birthday - 8 years old!!!!!

McKay turned 8 on June 26.  We kind of celebrated his birthday over 3 days worth because of how busy we were.  On the first day, Friday, we went to lunch at one of his favorite places, Olive Garden.  On the second day, Saturday, we spent the day up at Placerville welcoming our ward trekers home who had left that week to go on trek.  It was a long drive and hot, but we enjoyed being with our other ward members and felt that spirit as they came in, and also enjoyed a wonderful lunch.  We drove home and Kory had to help unload a lot of the treker's gear and deliver them.  Late that night we went bowling as a family.  That was the first time that our kids have gone bowling.  It was a lot of fun and the winners went in line with the family, Kory, Sharese, McKay, and Erica.  Kason just enjoyed watching us all bowl and he was able to do it once in a while.  The third day, Sunday, was his true birthday.  We did our normal stuff, went to church, came home and took naps, and to celebrate his birthday we opened presents, had one of his favorite dinners (tuna turnovers), and had cake.  We love McKay.  He at times is challenging but very spiritual, deep, and loving.  We are so glad that he is apart of our lives.

McKay LOVES flag cakes.  He requests them each year.  I made our famous jello cake with cream cheese frosting.  Yummmmm.
