Griffin had the first of the boys' birthdays this year, turning 8. Our celebration began with the usual trip to the donut shop for a sweet breakfast. It was followed by opening his presents and then going to Boomers where we played mini-golf and some video games. We ended the day with dinner at Pizza Plus. We did most of the celebrating the day before his birthday, since he didn't want to lose out on part of the day with church.
