Matthew Turns Eight!

 Matthew enjoyed pizza for his birthday dinner.
 And it just so happened that his birthday cards from Aunt Robyn and Uncle Dale...
 and from Mammaw and Pappaw came in the mail TODAY!!!  Yay for the USPS!
 Cute!  I love how he's attending to the cards and seems really to enjoy them!
 Daddy helped him read them all.
 Then Matthew got to open presents from Grandma and Grandpa...
 Hmmm...whose present is this anyway????
 Matthew was lovin' the presents and cards!  He was really getting into opening up stuff!!!
 Now for the cake made for him by big brother William!  No candles.  Just a HUGE strawberry which Daddy promptly let him plop into his mouth (the WHOLE thing) after we sang "Happy Birthday."
 Sharing with sister.  Well, really the truth was that he was hoping sister would share with him, but you wouldn't know that if I didn't tell you and it sounds nicer to say he was doing the sharing...
 Enjoying his OWN chunk of birthday cake!
 Begging off John Wesley...as if he hadn't had enough of his OWN cake and ice cream!
 Grandpa and Grandma helping him figure out all the buttons.
 John Wesley and Jared full of cake and ice cream relaxing in the living room.
 Silly sisters.  And a big brother who is reminiscing about "back in the day" when he had a toy like this one...
