Danny Man is 8

So this morning Danny was up first. Completely dressed and ready to start the day! Of course this meant basketball shorts instead of what I wanted him to wear but that is okay. He was happy and comfortable and I still managed some great shots of him for his Birthday!

We started the Day out at Whataburger for breakfast. John Michael was telling the cashier that it was Danny's birthday and Danny got a cinnamon roll from them. He was embarrassed at first that John Michael was telling everyone it was his special day, but when he started to get some freebies he felt pretty good.

We ended up going to several stores, he contemplated the movies but chose Academy over that. It was Charlie Brown's birthday too, our Beagle is 4, and so we stopped by Pet Smart to get him a few treats to celebrate too. He seemed excited to have a new wheel on a rope, a new ball, and then a bone! The boys love surprising the dog, which is sweet. I just wish that they would play with him more.

John Michael picked Danny out a toy that was just from him. It was Greg from Diary of a Wimpy Kid. Anyway, we got it while we were shopping. We came home so John Michael could wrap it. I gave him some Happy Birthday paper, he said no. Then some Batman, and again no. He wanted Sponge bob, the thing is the Sponge Bob is Christmas. He used it and wrapped the gift all by himself. It was a sweet moment.

We got Danny a Tackle Box at Academy with a little tackle and a 3D DS. He was pumped!

We went to Outback for dinner and it was yummy. Danny ended up getting the mixed grill, which had a little of everything. chicken, ribs, and shrimp. He loved it but of course we brought a good bit home. Mom, Deborah, and Sybil met us there and they surprised Danny with a Cake. He was so worried to because he asked mom about it and she said that she forgot, when they brought it out he was thrilled.

I have to say Danny had an amazing day and so did the rest of us. Very tired though!
