9 years ago today...

we celebrated the birth of our firstborn, Grayson Samuel!
I can't believe he's nine today. As my friend Katie said, he's halfway to 18. Oh my. (We had our first babies one day apart.)
We celebrated with eight of Grayson's buddies last night at a KU Basketball themed party. We invited all the kids over to Allen Fieldhouse Southwest (our house) for dinner and dessert, and lots of hoops action!
 we borrowed Mom and Dad's vintage Jayhawk and made it into a chalkboard sign

 all the boys started off playing some hoops outside -- all the kids wore a shirt or jersey from their favorite team
 Grayson with some birthday moves after hitting a big 3 pointer!

 then we came inside for pizza and drinks, and turned on the National Championship game from 2008

 after dinner, Jerry had them compete in a shooting game with the Pop-a-Shot

 the boys were hungry again :) so we had cookies and ice cream after Grayson opened his gifts

 frosted sugar cookies in the shapes of jerseys, basketballs, and Jayhawks!
Happy 9th birthday, Grayson! We love you!
