Parker's Birthday

Parker is 10--in the "double digits"!  He picked out his own cake and candles at a local grocery store.  He requested "Jack in the Box" for dinner.  We surprised him with a Star Wars t-shirt, a full-size soccer goal, and a Nerf bow and arrow--all big hits.  He had several new classmates over at "Pizza Factory" for a party of pizza, bread sticks, cupcakes, and arcade games.

Parade of Flags and Jeremy's mom

Jeremy's mom and husband, David, came to visit us for a few days.  They happened to come on the annual town "Parade of 1000 Flags" which honors those who died during 9/11.

Hoover Dam

After eating donuts for breakfast, we continued on to Hoover Dam.  We had lunch at In-n-Out and made the very congested drive back home.
