Shepard's 8th Birthday

Here are the highlights and pictures from Shepard's 8th birthday...
 


 
His request was chocolate cupcakes with chocolate icing and chocolate sprinkles...
think he likes chocolate??? :)

On the evening of Shepard's birthday, we were able to take him to the Toby Mac concert in Siloam Springs.  He was pretty excited about that!  Jamie Grace was performing, too, and he has been hoping to see her for a long time, so that was a big treat!  Will was excited to go to the concert, too.  Josiah doesn't really care much about concerts... so he ended up hanging out at his friend's house while the rest of went to the concert.  (Josiah had a lot of fun and so did we at the concert!)

The next day Grandma and Grandpa came for a visit and Shep got to celebrate his birthday with them.
(After that, my mom and I spent the day canning applesauce.  Wow.  That was a lot of work, but the applesauce is yummy!  I've got an awesome mom!)
 
Happy Birthday, Shep!
We sure enjoy your sweet ways and peacemaking spirit.  You are a treasure and real delight!
We loved celebrating 8 years with you!
