Heather and I spent Saturday at the National Alpaca Show at the Sandy Convention Center on Saturday. Mom, Dad and Aaron had been there since Wednesday and were not quite as enthused as us at that point. I think everyone enjoyed it and we got a taste of what the shows are about. Hamilton and Heather did great in the ring. Dad was on channel 2 news and the boys were excited their grandpa continues to be famous.
Matthew has been greatly anticipating his birthday since, well, the day after his last one. Thank goodness he doesnt remember all the things he has asked for over the last year and we have told him "Not right now, that would be a good birthday present". It may be wrong but it works. There was so much excitement and we had so much fun we celebrated it over 2 days. He was able to spend time with his friends and family swimming, eating pizza and going to a movie. There have been transformers running around everywhere. Matthew is excited to be 8 because now he gets to play football, and his dad had no influence over that. He is the last one of the boys that actally wants to be anything like his dad. The countdown has already begun, only 363 days until his birthday!
