Ezra had a soccer game on his actual birthday this year, which seemed fitting. He is such a talented, athletic little guy, and I absolutely LOVE watching him play and cheering him on. Mamaw and Papaw, Uncle Daniel, and his cousins came to watch him play before the party as well. He won his game and scored! Go, Ezra! After the game, we all came back to our house for some pizza and presents.
Then it was pool time.
Cake Time! Mamaw made delicious dirt pudding. Ezra's request.
It was a beautiful day! Ezra, I am so proud of you and the young man that you are becoming. God is going to do big things with you one day. I love you soooo very much. Happy 8th Birthday, buddy.
