Alex turns 12!


December 29th, Alex turned 12. My dad has been with us the last 2 years for my birthday and he would help the kids make me breakfast in bed. This is a tradition that the kids really like so we made Alex breakfast in bed to start his birthday.

Then the girls let him open one of the presents they got him......stretchy body parts.

Later that night we had some cake and ice cream and opened the rest of his presents. He asked for the new Mario game for the Wii and Deb wanted to surprise him so she wrapped it in a towel and then wrapped it in paper so he wouldn't be able to guess. He was really surprised when he opened it.

he got a few new movies, a shirt, a suit and ties and his friend took him snowboarding. He said it was the best birthday ever!

Oh ya, he also got an authentic cheese-head! The Green bay Packers are his favorite team and now he will feel complete watching the game!

Kai got that new Mario game for Christmas but hasn't played it yet, does Alex like it?
