More birthday fun

Breck celebrated his birthday at school with fun smart board games, push pops, and a chewing party (a piece of gum for everyone to chew)

We all stopped by to share in a bit of the fun 

Also had the Maass's up and went hiking with them and the Eberths.  All the kids at the top of Ely Point in Duluth. 

The whole crew enjoying a beautiful day together 

Someone is 7

The boys favorite thing to do in their birthdays is to run through the streamers and balloons on their door when they wake up:)

Can't believe this handsome guy is 7 years old today!

He is creative, daring, adventurous, stole my heart the day he was born!

And stole his Dad's the day he wanted to play golf :). 

All 3 hitting balls at the range with their new clubs. 

A little DQ treat to cool us down after golf

Dinner treats to finish off a wonderful day of celebrating such a great kid!!

Ice fishing in Ely

We finally got up aunt Kathy and uncle Jimmy cabin in Ely to do some ice fishing the weekend of Breck's birthday. Here the boys are in the ice house. 

It was too nice outside so Cullen and Shawn started fishing out there and caught lots of fish!!

Not sure who was more proud: Cullen or Uncle Jimmy

Dad and his boys fishing like pros

I even caught one :)

Breck with his nice crappie 

The whole gang enjoying the day. I think all of us caught at least one!

On the way back to Kathy and Jimmy's Breck pulled out his tooth. So the tooth fairy came on his birthday. 

Shawn and Jimmy cooking up the fish we caught for a fish fry.  So yummy!
