I am not sure how we have gotten to this point but Luke is 7! He is the joy that makes this family complete! He has a giggle that will make you sides hurt from laughing, he writes us love letters daily,  he kisses us almost to annoyance and loves his family with every ounce of his heart! He is still a self-proclaimed ninja and his tricks are getting scarier by the day! The kid literally has NO fear! I don't think he even comprehends to be afraid of anything! He is the strongest kid I have ever met...he can rock push-ups better than most grown men, lifts weights on his own freewill, puts me to shame in plank holding, and is currently sporting a visible six pack and pecs! He takes great delight in being the "little brother"...he loves to torment his brothers endlessly all well placing the two of them as high as Santa on his cool list!

Luke woke up ready to celebrate his big day! He is in full Birthday mode this year and truly believes the whole day should revolve around him! He came downstairs to so many awesome presents, ate his giant  "7" doughnut and went off to school leaving his lunch request with me! Chinese food plus ice cream cones for his class made for a perfect Birthday lunch, followed up with dinner at Chili's left all of us stuffed and happy! What a perfect day celebrating our perfect little man!!!

The biggest thing Luke wanted to do was go to Six Flags in Dallas for his Birthday since he reached the next magical height!!! This milestone got him on his very first looping coaster!!! He was ecstatic to ride and in keeping with our "if I can't ride, Mom can't ride" tradition, I got to be his partner for this excitement!!! Kelly, Chris and the kids also got to spend the day with us at Six Flags and Emma/Abby had a ball riding all the rides with their cousins! All in all...Luke had a pretty amazing time welcoming turning 7!!!

Luke's Ninja Warrior Party

Anyone who knows Luke at all knows that he is a self-proclaimed ninja that "is in training" to be on American Ninja Warrior! The kid is a nonstop bundle of energy that is constantly doing ninja tricks everywhere he goes! He truly believes with every ounce of himself that he is a ninja and is 100% confident we will all see him on American Ninja Warrior one day! I gotta hand it to him though....he is actually an amazing little ninja whose tricks both simultaneously amaze me and almost give me heart attacks!

Luke is turning 7 in less than two weeks so this year we planned a ninja party at the ninja training gym! He was in absolute heaven! For weeks he has been unable to sleep with excitement and yesterday the BIG DAY finally arrived! Luke had all the boys in his class, plus 2 of the girls (he specifically requested that we not invite the "girly girls" and the Rinn family all there to help him celebrate! These kids spent 3 straight hours being ninjas and having an absolute ball! We literally had to drag them over to eat and have cake! Luke was so exhausted when we got home he put himself to bed for a nap...I'd say the party was a HUGE success!!!
