The big 11!

So 3 days after Sam's birthday, Gus turned 11.  Since it was a Sunday, we let the kids sleep longer and Sam was the last to wake.  The rest of us were in the living room telling Gus "Happy Birthday" when Sam came in and said "No Gus birthday, Sam sleep, no birthday".  He is definitely not a morning kid!
After church, Gus opened his presents.

New sunglasses are a favorite!

New dirt bike helmet!

We went to Sports World after the little boys woke up from their naps.  Gus and Aaron drove go carts.

We tried to teach the boys miniature golf, but that didn't go over well :)  Drew thought he was supposed to pick up all the balls after everyone hit the first time.

Unfortunately, I wasn't feeling well and by the time we got to the 5th hole, I was sick in the bushes.  I waited inside while Gus and Aaron finished and then we went home.  Aaron started running a fever and poor Gus had to take care of his parents on his birthday.  We rallied for his delicious grilled cheese sandwiches but didn't last long.  Luckily, the little boys were exhausted so they went to bed early.  I was able to stay up with Gus for little while longer.
