Michael turns 10


So this one is really late, but I am wanting to use videos more often now and that just seems to take longer.  However, after Rachel becoming a teenager a week earlier, Michael decided to keep the trend going and become the 2nd double digit in age child.  We had a family party at home for him where he got to have us come to school for lunch during the day and then he gets to pick dinner and activity at night.  Below is a short video of him actually "turning 10".




A few days later we had his birthday party with his friends over where he played soccer in the backyard, followed by a rousing round of "guns", then a game called "5-10" which is like hide and seek in the dark.  A little earlier he wanted to do some target practice with shooting his bb gun at soda cans and also using the bow and arrow to shoot some cardboard deer with his friends.  It was a really fun time, but parties are really hard to plan now we are finding out!  After the outside festivities we came inside for some bobbing for apples and some Halloween inspired treats.




The surpise of the party was how quickly Megan took to the bow and arrow.  She basically picked it up and started shooting better than the boys at Michaels party!  A total tom-boy.
