This year we told the boys that we were just going to have a simple gathering with the family (and we had all intentions of doing so...). But- the weather was getting so nice, we all missed our friends and we knew how much the boys wanted to have a 'friend party' so we decided to put together a surprise gathering at the park. This was not an easy task when you have a soon to be six year old asking questions about my every move!
Here I present to you the newly turned 4 & 6 year old:
At school, J got to be the 'Star of the Week' and share a book that he made about himself with his class.
This is the look upon arriving to the park for his surprise... After I asked him if he was surprised, he told me, "You didn't surprise me, YOU TRICKED ME!!!!". I guess he isn't big on surprises?
Kyle was all smiles, when he saw everyone at the park!
He was also VERY eager to eat his cake!
Cake number 1... It is a Lego block with a Star Wars Lego set assembled on top. It is actually a big Rice Crispy Treat under the frosting... J didn't want cake! It is covered with a layer of whip cream frosting and then a blanket of homemade marshmallow fondant.
Cake number 2... Lego with Cars Lego assembled on top. More frosting between the crispy treat and the fondant makes for a smoother finish!
Big blowout.
Watchers!
cupcakes with handmade marshmallow fondant Lego blocks.
Gift time.
It is funny how excited 5/6 year old boys get for each other!
We found out what a goof ball J is in front of his friends!
K was thrilled to get new toys!
J couldn't wait to have his try at some new Lego's.
Carter enjoyed all the change of hands that he got.
Back at home... A few more gifts! Thanks Rob & Amy, he is always up for a good challenge!
Rocks & Music... it is what he is into!
He has to feel the smoothness of the rocks...
A model body for him to explore from Auntie Amy & Uncle Robbie... He loves it and identified many of the parts before we even showed him!
Boy, how the time flies! We love you boys, Happy Birthday!
