Brad's Birthday celebrations...

For Brad's birthday Randy took him to Salt Lake for a Jazz game. Randy let Brad pick what he wanted for dinner. Randy said they walked around the mall food court forever so he could decide. He finally settled on Subaro Pizza. Brad was in awe at how big the pieces were.

They got to sit really close. 

Pre game show. 

They were handing out ties at the game and he was completely stoked to wear his Jazz tie to church the next day. 

Monday was Brad's actual birthday. I checked him out of school so we could go to lunch. He has been thinking about where he wanted to go for weeks. He decided he wanted to try sushi since Randy and I go there all the time and hears all about it since we rave about it.  

I tried to warn him that he may not like it. He insisted on trying it at least once. 

He was kinda nervous to take a bite. 

He liked the ones with crab and shrimp but gagged on the ones with the fish. He was trying to put on a game face and pretend that he liked it a lot but I could tell he was regretting his choice. When I asked him if he wanted to go there next year he giggled and said "probably not".  He was a good sport for trying it. 

On the way back to school we stopped and got him a huge donut. He ate it much faster than the sushi. 

For dinner he wanted grilled chicken and artichokes, and instead of a cake he wanted brownies. 

Happy Birthday Brad!!! I  really can't believe you are 11 already.
