noah's 11th birthday

our big 11 year old bright and early on his birthday
the kids had smores cereal for his
and then off to school they went
 an unexpected surprise on his birthday
while the kids were at school i prepared for noah's science themed birthday party
 so many cookies
 we took him subway for lunch

 "bacteria" cookies
 we put the cookies in petri dishes and they were the party favor the kids took home
 we also got biohazard bags for the pinata candy
 after school we hurried and let noah open his presents before his party
 his sensitive hearing inspired michael to get him ear muffs and he loved them
 lots of legos
 noah invited lots of friends over
 and we asked a family friend/noah's old scout leader who loves science
to come do a science presentation for the kids
they LOVED it
 noah got to assist with "elephant toothpaste"

 it was pretty chilly out so we moved inside eventually
 we made liquid nitrogen ice cream

 the kids got to add lots of toppings and thought it was awesome
 opening presents

 pinata
 we ran out of time for noah's cake with his friends but sang to him after they left (super late)
and ate it the next day
noah is definitely a "tween" 
he's getting so big
there have been some growing pains lately with him wanting more independence
but he's a sweet boy and we're so glad he's ours
he is super into his chickens and fish,
he loves going fishing, reading, earning money by mowing the lawn,
playing with his best friend david, scouts, playing with jude and legos
he has really enjoyed 5th grade and i can hardly believe he'll be in middle school next year
happy birthday, noah!
