First, let me admit, I've been a terrible dad by neglecting this blog and not adding more posts of Grant's accomplishments and celebrations. Grant is a wonderful son full of personal determination and compassion for others. I'm lucky to be there for him as a coach and need to remember to first be a father by capturing these memories for a time when they or I begin to fade away.
Son, as you read this later in life, when I have turned this blog over to you to share with your son or daughter, know that I loved you more than I was able to express.
Since Grant's birthday is in late July when school is out and everyone is traveling to get out of the heat, we decided to have his birthday party in May to allow his "core" friends celebrate with him. He was trying to decide between go kart racing at Octane Raceway or laser tag and air hockey at Mavrix. Through some negotiating with the staff and because they are next to each other, we found a way to plan both events for the same price as one "birthday package". This kept the rambunctious young-ones excited, well-fed, and busy. Since they are all competitive, we even had cool swag for First Place in racing and laser tag at the end.
Kids and parents commented the day was a hit! Most important to me, Grant enjoyed his day and thanked us for making it all come together. Check it out!
One very cool, cute kid! Thanks for posting, Good Dad.
