My Bridger-boy is eight!!!
I can't believe how time flies by so quickly. It seems like yesterday that I was bawling my eyeballs out because I had just been accepted to the RN program and then found out I was pregnant. I had no idea how much this little guy would change my life. I love him more than I can explain. He makes me laugh...all the time! He makes me yell too :) He has definitely been my "handful" but he has also been my sweet, funny, helpful, tender-hearted, energetic, happy, loving, caring, smart, little boy.
I took him and the kids to Provo Beach Resort for his birthday and we had a great time!

We played the arcades...which were a serious rip-off! Each game was 50 cents- $1.00 to play. Sydni wasted like $4.00 on this stupid dinosaur game that grabs little favors.

LOOK! These only cost me $4.00! Oh well, she had fun playing that stupid game :)

And, she got an awesome kazoo that looks like lips...AND it's her favorite color. Totally worth $4.00...right?

Sydni and Cooper rode the carousel...Bridger was too cool to ride it. Sydni chose a horse, and I told Cooper to go over by her...so he chose the Handicap bench. LOVE IT!

Cooper & Sydni did the play area...which they absolutely LOVED!

And Bridger did the ropes course...seriously! I can't believe he did it. Here he is signing his life away.

Getting suited up.

Getting hooked in.

And he was off!!!

I was in awe watching him. He would look over at me every once in a while, but not because he was anxious and needed some reassurance. He was totally on his own and he was owning it! He cruised through the ropes like he had done it a million times!

I was a proud mom watching him. I might have gotten a little teary-eyed. He is growing up way too fast :)

I guess it was hard work, because he had some rosy cheeks and he was thirsty when he was done.

He made it through alive, with a smile on his face! He is so big!!!

While Bridger was scaling some serious heights, the other kids were climbing a dangerous 18 inches over a fully padded floor ;)


I hardly ever get pics of Bridge that are usable, so I had to post them. He is so dang cute. I love his curls over his ears.

Bridger didn't play very many arcade games, so he used the rest of his money to bowl. It looked super fun and he loved it.

More rosy cheeks. I guess they get that from me. We played hard!

We opened up some presents. I love that he was excited to get a GINORMOUS box of his favorite granola bars.

ALWAYS being silly.

I love you Bridger! You are my FAVORITE 8-year old!!!
Happy Birthday!
