Four Teenagers!

On Saturday, our baby boy became a teenager!  Hard to believe, but our little Max is 13 years old!  That means that for the next year, all of our children are teenagers!  Unbelievable!  Max did not want to do much to celebrate.  He was very happy to have a pajama day at home, to not have to take the dog out at all,

and to have a "virtual" party with his friends back in the States by playing Minecraft online and Skyping with them.  We also had cake, gifts, LED balloons, and ice cream sundaes.

It was a very relaxing day for all!

This morning, we woke up to a cold and windy but beautiful morning.  After taking a long walk around one of our parks, we all hit the mall for a little shoe shopping.  These growing boys go through shoes like crazy!  Max also had some birthday money burning a hole in his pocket so he had to hit the game store.  We then all went out to TGI Friday's for a very American, birthday dinner.

A very pleasant weekend!  Quincy is now safely back in St Louis after a very nice spring break with his grandparents.  School resumes again tomorrow!
