Trey Turns 6 years old!

So the whole summer has passed by without even one blog. Kendal's birthday was the last blogging occasion and so that Trey doesn't feel left out I had better highlight the day of his birth as well. Trey was so excited about his birthday that he asked for months when the day would finally arrive. We counted down for months, so when the day actually came he was beyond thrilled. We started his birthday out just like we did last year, with breakfast in bed (Krispy Kreme donuts and milk).

After breakfast we headed to the mall and hit his favorite spots including Build-a-Bear, Chick-fil-a, and the lego store. He was lucky enough to have his Grandma Nancy here with him for his special day. His birthday actually hit on a Friday, which made it the perfect day to hold his birthday party at Chuck E Cheese. He loves that place! He was able to have 5 boys from his primary class come and celebrate with him as well as his family. He had a great time. The next day we continued his birthday weekend by heading over to the lake to spend a day with Grandma and Grandpa "G". We played on the tubes, tried water skiing, went to the pool, ate awesome food and had more birthday cupcakes all in a fun-filled afternoon.
Here is a little bit more about who Trey is at 6 years old:
* Trey played basketball and baseball and enjoyed both this last year. He made great improvements over the year before and was this year a contributor for his teams. This fall he will be swimming on the swim team and is a little nervous but excited. He loves swimming, but is not confident in how good of a swimmer he really is.
* Trey loves to tease his little sister Adison and loves being right in the middle of what his two older sisters, Bayley and Kendal are doing. He sometimes feels like the odd man out, but for the most part just goes with the flow. He tries to be a good boy most of the time and like most boys has selective hearing at times.
* Trey is SO excited to be starting school this year. He is already reading and picks up on most concepts very quickly. We met his new teacher last week and she seems young and very sweet. He should have a great year!
* Trey still takes his hair very seriously and is excited that it is finally growing out. It is starting to lay down again after sticking straight up for the last couple of months after I buzzed it. All I have to say is that his hair looks crazy and you will find him in front of the mirror fixing it back right.
* We love our little man and it is so fun watching him grow up! Hard to believe that he is already 6 years old. Seems like just yesterday we were bringing him home to our home in Kentucky, while at the same time Kentucky seems like forever ago.
Trey master kneeboarding this summer and LOVES it!
Trey loved his time at the beach in May.
Ready to hit.

Look at that family with all those BIG kids!

How is everyone enjoying school? Is Trey adjusting and loving it? Are you loving having only one at home? Is Adison loving having you to herself?

Give everyone a big hug from the Keslers!
