Birthday trip to Kingsport

For the 3rd weekend in a row, we got to celebrate Jack and Mark's birthday.  The first birthday weekend was at the beach for their actual birthday.  The next weekend was their birthday party.  This weekend was spent in Tennessee.  The Morgans all came up and we were all glad to be there, all ten of us.  We were very glad to see Mimi and Poppy.  The boys had their third cake of the month.  Ha.
Everyone had a great time as it is always good to spend time with family.

Here are some pictures from the weekend:

Birthday Party

The next day, Jack and Mark celebrated their birthday by having a party at the local bowling alley.  This is a perfect place for the boys to have a birthday party.   It is fun, sporty, and also inside.  The boys had about 14 friends come to the party.  Everyone had a great time.  The kids bowled a couple of games and had a great time while the parents just sat back and watched.  There were kids from school, the neighborhood, and the Lookouts there.

Here are a couple of pictures from the party:

Happy Birthday cake!

Singing Happy Birthday to the boys!

Evan's birthday party

No time like the summer to go hang out with some Lookouts at a birthday party.  Evan turned 8 around the same week the boys turned 7.  Evan's birthday party was the day before Jack and Mark's birthday party.  The party was held in Apex and the boys played indoor soccer and dodgeball.  A couple other Lookouts were there.  Everyone had a good time.  The kids really enjoyed dodgeball as it was parents vs. kids.  Haha.

Here are a couple of pictures from the party:

Dodgeball time!
