Devin's 8th birthday

Devin is 8!  Being an even year, he was able to have a friends party, but instead opted to go to Disneyland with his best buddy, Jack and skip school for a day.  He's been with Jack in school since his first year in kindergarten.  They both were held back together, have been in the same classes each year and go to speech together.  Such a sweet boy and nice family.
Disney had begun to decorate for Halloween.  It was a beautiful day with small crowds.  We got there at about 10:30 and left at 7:00.  They had soooooo much fun!
In Star Tours.
Eating our brought-from-home lunch.
Jacks parents sent each boy with a Disney gift card, so Devin bought the spray bottle he's been wanting every time we go and Jack bought a hat.
Took a ride down Main Street.
The firetruck below saw Devin's Disney Happy Birthday pin on his shirt and honked the Happy Birthday Song to him.  :)
Back at school, on Friday, Kirk and I brought popsicles for the class and everyone sang Happy Birthday to him while Mrs. Hayes had him lead the song.
With all the birthday money he got he bought a Penny Board.  He's been wanting one ever since Justin bought his a couple months ago.
He chose a mint chip ice cream cake. Can't believe he's 8!  He'll be baptized in just a few short months.
Happy birthday, Mev!  We love you!
