To celebrate Luke's birthday we aksed him what he would like to do and gave him sone suggestions. We ended up taking him to Des Moines along with Jake and cousin Rylie. We ate a great supper at Texas Raodhouse before checking into a hotel . We gave the boys their own room. THey went to the pool and hot tub, then went to see a movie. One thing that I have always loved about the cousins, they all still like and enjoy a good kids movie. Tonight's movie pick was Puss in Boots. While enjoying the hot tub, the boys got a little wild and went outside soaking wet in swim trunks and had a snowball fight. That was entertaining. The next morning they headed to Bass Pro shop while Mark and I went to a upscale men's clothing store in Clive. Mark loved every minute of the clothing store. He likes the personal attention and being made over. He likes that the store salesmen are all former clothing store owners, managers, and retail associates. They know clothing and they are good at what they do! I had to keep reminding myself that Mark doesn't shop often and these clothing finds will last him for many years. Yes, they were very expensive! It was painful for me to look at price tags. At Bass Pro shop, we reserved a spot and played a round of bowling while eating pizza. And guess who won? Me! It was a fun way to celebrate Luke turning 15!
With family, the kids often have more than one celebration so family can be included. We met with the grandparents and Wade's family at Jethro's BBQ for Luke's birthday also.
At the age of 15, Luke has really gotten tall, he is catching us.
