This is what happens when you ask him for a picture…
He is a goofy, fun loving, thinker, talker, and builder.
If you ask him what he wants to be he says he has not made up his mind yet because there are too many he wants.
He loves playing with his littlest sister and can play games in his head all day.
Love this kid, he makes life more fun.
His birthday was several days ago but I took this long getting a post together!
These pics pretty much sum him up.
Ha
My oldest is 10yrs old!
He got to celebrate his birthday with my family in Indiana so he was pretty happy.
He has started planning his life as an adult.
He asks me questions about ages to get married and mentions his future wife and kids.
He has gotten really into chess, risk, and other strategy games.
He and his brother will play for hours.
So of course I got him Star Wars Risk!!!!
Did you know they made that? It is awesome!
Nick’s parents got him Star Wars Chess, which was appropriate since Nick’s dad taught him how to play to begin with.
And he got Star Wars trivia from my side of the family.
I have not played him.
He reads Star Wars Encyclopedias for fun…
I am pretty sure he had a pretty happy birthday 🙂
His birthday request?
Play video games.
Ha! We tried to get him to go to a children’s museum or something but that is what he wanted so that is what he did.
He really likes joke books.
This kid is sometimes hard to buy for because he is so easy going.
He does not tell us all of the time what he wants like his older brother.
I am thankful for laid back birthdays, awesome 8yr olds, and leftover cake!
