Big Six!


The big brother turned the big six this year!  The night before his birthday he lost a tooth.  The upper front tooth to be exact.  He didn't so much lose it as he grabbed it and his elbow got knocked out, but either way it's a hell of a deal for the kid because it turns out the night before a birthday, the Tooth Fairy shells out the big dough.  $10 to be exact.

Carter invited six friends over to participate in a Jedi Training Camp.  All young Jedis reported for training camp and were given a robe, light saber, and task cards.  




Bradley constructed a black hold in the garage from 2x4s and black plastic, the kids popped StormTrooper balloons with light sabers, practiced their shooting skills with Nerf Guns, dodged lasers, and crossed hot lava to defeat Darth Vader.  We topped it all off with some pizza and cupcakes.  The highlight of the party was Auntie Raylene's Sumo Bumpers.  Next year we may have to hold a sumo wrestler training session.

In keeping in line with tradition, Carter answered his annual interview questions this evening.  Here goes.
