Future College Roommates? Perhaps.

Peeking out of Madison and Cooper's playground

Last Saturday we headed down to the Rappahannock River to celebrate a very special birthday.  Brad's best friends from college, Drew and Lindsay, have a son who is a month older than Jack.  Cooper was having a 3rd birthday party - a dinosaur party, and we couldn't wait to see Jack and Cooper play together.

Scoping out the pinata with Daddy

Lindsay did a super job planning the party - I was very impressed.  The kids were occupied for two straight hours with nothing but dinosaur-driven activities: digging for dinosaurs, hunting for dinosaur eggs, a dinosaur adoption, a dinosaur coloring station, dinosaur fruit snacks and chicken nuggets...it was simply amazing.  Jack thoroughly enjoyed himself!

In fact, here he is taking his very first swing at a pinata - a dinosaur pinata to be exact.

Scooping up some candy...even though he doesn't like to eat any of it!

The birthday boy and his dinosaur ice cream cake - so yummy:)

Uncle Drew, Cooper, and Jack playing with birthday toys after opening presents.

It was so fun to see Drew, Lindsay, Madison, and Cooper.  On the way home, Brad and I were talking about how much we miss hanging out with them.  We'll have to make it a point to see each other more often...we'd love for our kids to be close friends growing up.  

Who knows?  Maybe one day, Jack and Cooper will be roommates at JMU just like their daddies:)
