Well, none of us can believe it, but Brock is now eight. This is a big birthday for him, so we decided to go all out. We took him to Trafalga in Provo the weekend before for some miniature golfing and pizza. Then on his birthday we went out to Wingers for dinner and then came home to open presents. We were so full from the dinner and free Asphalt Pie at Wingers, that we sang and blew out the candles on his cake, but didn't even cut into it until the next evening. We tried to center all of our gifts around being eight. Here are a few shots:
Scout Uniform
Tennis Shoes Among the Nephites Series
His own scriptures (He was the most excited about these)
And, thankfully, the Grandparents supplied him with the toys.
He's in major Lego mode, so thanks Grandparents.
The next week was Brock's first official Den Meeting. He looks so cute in his Cub Scout Uniform! Oh - I mean "handsome", I'm not allowed to say 'cute' anymore.
Then, of course, came the biggest day of all. On October 10th, Brock was baptized and confirmed by his Dad. It was such a fun day, and we appreciate all those who came to support us, and we missed the ones that weren't able to be there.
Now for his birthday party with his friends this weekend. It's been a fun few weeks!

Congratulations Brock! Way to go! So glad your family was able to be there and you had a great time!
What a fun and exciting birthday! I can't believe you guys have an eight year old....you look exactly the same as you did in college in those pictures! Crazy.
What a fun weekend. If only we lived a little close! Curses!
Happy Birthday Brock! and congratulations too! I can't believe he is already EIGHT, how did that happen so quickly? Looks like you celebrated in style, you know we have to live boy things vicariously through other people. Legos and cub scouts-yes I would say Brock has officially graduated from cute to handsome and maybe even borderline dashing. :)
