The entire 4th grade class at Peter's new school put on a concert a few days before his 10th birthday. We wanted to make the day special for Peter since he'd been having a hard time making the transition to the new school so we brought in gifts for the kids in his class and let him paln his own birthday party.
Nora got really excited to try out Daddy's skateboard on the way home.
For his birthday, Peter requested a chocolate raspberry cake and orange chicken for dinner.
Just after his birthday, Peter got to compete in his new cub scout troop Pinewood Derby.
Peter had fun in the previous years but has never really won (or even placed ha!)
So this year, he and Travis did a lot of research to make a winning car.
And all their hard work seemed to pay off as Peter took first place!
He was so incredibly excited. Actually, I don't know who was more excited, Peter or Travis :)
Peter asked to take his friend, Dennis rock climbing for his birthday and they had a great time.
We are so proud of Peter. His new school is much more demanding and although he's had some ups and downs, he's really tried hard to meet and exceed expectations. We are so proud of how hard he's worked. I'm constantly impressed with his grasp of difficult topics and his curiosity. He is such a good big brother and is always willing to help out. He loves Minecraft and reading and I'm always excited to hear his complicated ideas and plans.
