We officially have a teenager in the house!
We started off celebrating Finley's 13th birthday with a big homemade breakfast of crepes and bacon!
This year Finley's birthday fell during spring break, so we had the whole day to enjoy with him! Mimi and Donovan came over for the day and after having lunch at Taco Bell we headed over to the Science Center.
The littles, Mimi, and I explored the Science Center while Finley and Donovan did the ropes course there called Sky Wild.
Finley had done this ropes course once before with his friends, but this was Donovan's first time here.
They have 11 different courses of varying levels.
Finley and Donovan completed all but 2 of the most difficult.
The neat part is that we can see them while exploring the outdoor area of the Science Center so were able to get a few good pictures and videos.
I love how close these two are and how much fun they have together.
A few weeks after his actual birthday we finally celebrated with friends and a birthday party at Paintball Central.
Finley did this for his birthday last year as well, but this time around we had much better weather!
The paintball crew!
The littles and I showed up towards the end with food and dessert!
Finley decided on Crumbl cookies instead of cake this year.
They even have mini cookies for catering purposes so we went that route so people could try a few different kinds! The flavors this week were passion fruit, brownie, oatmeal, funfetti, and peanut butter with m & m's.
We also lucked out that it wasn't very crowded that day too!
Some of the rounds they just got to play against each other the whole time.
Finley had a wonderful 13th birthday! We are so glad we could celebrate with friends and family and make him feel so special and loved. Even though he is starting to act a little snarky and teenagery lately, he is still a really great, smart, and sweet boy. He keeps us laughing and entertained as well as challenges me intellectually. So blessed and grateful for my first born!
