Sebs 8th Birthday Party

Okay, so this is a picture of what Sebastian is capable of in a matter of minutes literally and he did'nt even play with them, he just pulled everything out.

He is feeling quite pleased with the mess he made

Sebastian sitting in on his first cubscout meeting which just happened to fall on the exact night of his Birthday. He got a little bored sitting but then they introduced him and sang happy birthday to him and after that they all got to play some games and have dinner. Sebastian of course spent this time running around coming up to everyone and introducing himself. We are going to get him a scout uniform shortly.:)

So I thought I should at least write a little something. I have'nt really been into the whole blogging thing for a while let alone even checking my email. Anyway, Sebastian is back in school!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!YAY!!!!!!! I was actually able to clean out my car yesterday. It feels so great to do even little things like that. We've been pretty sick and Sebastian has been my shadow 24/7. I never realized how good we had it when he was still able to go to school. His health has improved greatly and he is busier than ever:) I just about literally cannot leave him alone for more than a few seconds without something happening. I am grateful and do however feel priveledged that I have been entrusted with his care and I want to always do my best to protect him. Things will happen but it's okay.
So we have had some really great weather lately. It rains a little off and on and the sky is full of BEAUTIFUL clouds with just a hint of blue skies. I REALLY love to look at the clouds. We are truley blessed with sooooo much beauty around us.
So before Sebastian could return to school, I had to turn a Dr.s form to the district office okaying his return to school. So on the way there, Sebastian was getting ansey and upset and threw a couple of things at me while I was driving-(my car desperately needed to be cleaned out) and I decided just to ignore them and not even pick them up. He was fine and we got there and walked a ways to the office and turned in the form. There were some other people in there too so It took a few minutes. Anyhow, it all worked out quite well and then it was time to leave which is always a struggle but we made it. We walked all the way back to the car and I strapped Seb in and then sat in the seat and felt some kind of lump against my back. Right away I was thinking what in the world is stuck on the seat. Well......it was Not what was stuck on the seat, it was what had been stuck to my back ever since I had left the car to turn in the form. It was a sticky bun type thing from the primary activity we had gone to. So yes, Seb had thrown it at me it stuck to my back and let me tell you it was pretty big and I had walked into the office with that thing on my back the whole time and did'nt even know it and the part that kills me is that nobody even said anything....and I KNOW they had to have seen it I mean you could'nt have missed that..If I saw that on someone I'm not sure I would have said something but I totally would have laughed. ThankYou to Sebastian for never a dull moment!:) It was pretty funny

Seb had a great time

Sebastian ate his Marshmellow right away and enjoyed the jellybeans

They did and Easter egg/scavenger hunt but it was soooo much better, you were only supposed to find the pink and purple eggs which had clues in them that had to do with the resurrection of Jesus Christ and when they did'nt understand a clue they could look it up with the scriptures. And once they figured out the clue, for example one was bread and they would then have to find a piece of bread. It was sooo cute and clever and Sebastian had a GREAT time. He found about 3 eggs.

So for everyone out there, I just thought you should know that I LOVE my Mom and Dad! Adding a little somthing, I have truely come to realize that they are both some of my best friends..:) They are so wonderful and Sebastian and I are sooooooo grateful for all they do for us. They always support us and guide us in all that we do. They are always there to help us be prepared for challenges that may come our way. There example is truely a righteous one.
I will always be forever Grateful to them for raising us in the Gospel and this church. I am grateful for their testimonies and they have always taught us well to keep the commandents. I lately have wondered where I would be in my life If I had'nt been raised in the Gospel. I know though that I would be miserable especially having rebelled in my youth and seeking the ways of the world. Amiss all of my curious and unworthy adventures, my Mom and Dad ALWAYS loved me. I have been born of goodly parents.......
Thankyou Mom and Dad .....WE LOVE YOU VERY VERY MUCH!!!!!!!!
