Nile turned eight last week. Nile woke up in the morning and his grandparents were there to celebrate his birthday breakfast with him. Nile's grandma made him a hockey quilt which is so soft and comfy. The had stopped by on their way to Denver to watch a couple of BYU hockey games. When I was growing up and it was our birthday we could choose to have either a birthday party or a shopping spree. So we have the same tradition with my kids. Nile opted for the shopping spree because he wanted a gaming system but I said he could have a few friends over to play football and watch a movie. He told my mom he got everything that he could have ever wanted from his friends and the shopping spree. He is going to get baptized in St. Louis on Thanksgiving day. He is getting excited for that to happen. The day after his birthday party he had a hockey game and football game.
Brent likes to wear a mouth guard because Nile wears one for football and hockey. So I bought him his own mouth guard and cut it down to his size. He cracks us up. He thinks he is one of the big kids. He gets the football and then tells Nile to tackle him.

I've been waiting to see some birthday pics!!! Glad to hear your day was lots of fun Nile. We love you.
I can't believe that Nile is 8 already! I want to see some photos of him in his hockey uniform. That's cute that Brent wants to be just like his big brother. What a fun family you have.
