I got an opportunity to have a one on one lunch with him since Adrienne was at preschool. I checked him out for the lunch period and we dined at McDonald's. It was fun to spend time with him alone.
We got some donuts for him to take as a class treat and he was the most popular guy around for the afternoon.
That evening he got to open his gifts: new scouting items, and a basketball standard.That was a big surprise.
He was so excited, even though he had already unknowingly found it despite Burke's best effort to keep it hidden. Nathan hadn't realized what he found, thankfully. Maybe the best gift would be the two and a half hours Burke and I spent putting it together.
Nathan used the new basketball Grandma W. gave him and would have spent all night out there if we hadn't made him come in for bed.
He didn't want a birthday cake, so we celebrated with birthday brownies. It was a nice afternoon spent with family. Happy Birthday to my first born son!
A Birthday Interview is upcoming...

Oh boy...Miles would be in heaven. Next time he's at your house, I can guarantee he'll stand under that "backaball hoopt" and throw a ball up at the net for the entire time. He hucks it up, then always ducks as it comes back down and clonks him on the head, and he just does it over, and over, and over.... :) Have fun!
Love his "surprised face" picture! Happy birthday, Nathan!
