Robert is now 10!!

Party time for Robert and his friends at Incredible Dave's. The boys were given unlimited pepperoni pizza, cheese pizza and or chicken fingers. They at soooooo much! Robert didn't even want his birthday cake because he ate so much.
Okay there is a story behind this birthday cake...I went to pick it up on our way to the party (I allowed enough time), however when I arrived, they hadn't even started the decorations on the cake. I wasn't happy, but couldn't really do anything about it. They quickly added a few lines to try to make it look like a soccer ball (but not doing a very good job - being rushed and all). In the end Robert and the kids in my car were only 5 minutes late for the party and we had a cake.

Robert had a fabulous time at Incredible Dave's with his friends. He wishes he could have invited all his friends but mom (me) put a cap on the # (due to the cost). They played great together, got to eat as much as they wanted and then played some more. Robert enjoyed all his gifts and thanks everyone for making his birthday so special!

We had an family celebration on Robert's actual birthday! Robert getting ready to open the notorious birthday present!

Jessica and Robert - big smiles! I love these kids!

Robert and Marissa are more like twins! They get along so well.

Robert was so excited for his birthday celebration. Ever since I purchased his present I've been so excited to give it to him. This would be the VERY BEST birthday present he's ever received. He heard me talking about my excitement earlier in the month, and so we made an agreement that I would give him clues periodically and he could make a guess. I knew he'd never get it!!! His first clue was it started with a "W". His second clue was that is involved soccer. His third clue was that there was a soccer field involved. He guessed fairly close, but on 2/25 he didn't have the answer! When he opened his present and read from the tickets that he was going to see the USA soccer team play against Trinadad Tabago in a World Cup Qualifying match in Nashville, TN - he smiled from ear to ear! Robert and I will go down for the game! He loves loves loves to play, watch, and participate in soccer! When I saw that the USA team was playing so close to home, I had to get tickets for Robert.
