Evan's Birthday

 Evan turned 10!  He decided on a soccer themed birthday this year and Brandon created this masterpiece.  

 One thing on his wishlist - duck tape.  He got three kinds and has since created an awesome wallet.
 He was very excited to see Grammie and Gramps bought him the next book in the series he was reading - House of Hades.
 He asked for a circuit set and we delivered with the "extreme set."
 He has made some fun stuff with it so far, a buzzer, alarm, spinner, and I don't knwo what else.  The adults were as amused with it as he was.
 Sometimes he still looks lie a little kid to me, but those days are fleeting.  He is turning into a young man very quickly and acting older and older.  

We love our big 10 year old.  He is still super goofy and funny, LOVES to read lately and is frequently caught staying up too late reading a book, is getting to be a better and better soccer player and loves his team, and is an overachieving Webelos scout who got 16 awards at his last pack meeting and is aiming to outdo that number this month.  I miss baby Evan but so far big kid Evan is pretty fun. Definitely a new phase of life but he is making it enjoyable for all of us.
