Campbell’s 7th birthday! Today we went to see the USS Razorback, a submarine that was used from WW2 through the Vietnam and then later by the Turkish Navy.

Campbell had an awesome time touring the submarine and talking to the veteran volunteers who were there. One of them even gave Campbell a cool Razorback challenge coin. And, he got a cool pilot hat. :). We also got to tour a tug boat used at Pearl Harbor. We had an awesome time!

Later, we went to the McArthur Museum of Arkansas Military History, which was also super-fun!

But, the highlight of the day was going to the Clinton Museum. It was not very crowded, and we got to have a lot of time by ourselves in the mock up of Clinton’s oval office. The docents and guards were so nice and even let Campbell sit behind the desk for a picture. He asked all about the resolute desk and told them everything that he knew. :). It was super fun!

Later, we opened presents in the hotel room. 🙂

Then we went out for supper at the fancy hotel restaurant. We played Campbell’s new favorite game: Five Crowns, and everyone was so impressed with how good he was at dinner. He even tried some new things.

After supper, we had dessert in the room and lit one of the fun birthday candles that he loves. He went to sleep a very happy and tired 7-year-old. And one who insisted the candle sleep right next to him.
