double digits

we hit double digits this year....riley turned 10!  we had so much fun celebrating this sweet kid.  riley is pretty passionate about soccer.  and you may have heard there is this little thing called the world cup going on right now (it has taken over our home truth be told).....so we had ourselves a soccer birthday through and through.  it was a blast!!  his buddies came over and played a game of soccer

   ....a few of the dads got into the game as well, and we even had a world cup trophy!

       we took a break to watch a little world cup (england vs italy...great game).  one of the dads is italian so he was in heaven....turns out a roomful of rowdy 10yr old boys is very much like being in a bar, just without the alcohol (and italy won too!)  ..........then we had some cake (of course riley wanted a soccer ball).

....and to burn off that sugar the boys went and played another game of soccer!!    riley had a great great birthday celebration.  it was exactly the most perfect way to spend his day, playing soccer and watching soccer with his friends.    happy double digits little man!!
