Nate turned 9 on January 20th, and he had not one, but two parties to celebrate. We had a family party on his actual birthday, because a birthday is just not a birthday without cousins! The older Ford kids were out of town, unfortunately, but everyone else was able to come over for dinner, cake and ice cream. The following Friday, he had a sleepover party with four of his friends. They had fun making their own pizzas, playing games and watching movies. Scott is definitely in charge of sleepovers since he is the only one who can stay up as late as the kids! I love the pictures of Nate opening his presents from our family--He smiled at the first package of socks, but wasn't too excited about the second package. Luckily, the remote control car made up for it!
