The Party

Our 4 year old

Little brother

Let's talk about the cake now.  Grant has been loving monster trucks lately, so I searched the internet for inspiration.  I found this cake here and decided it was the one to make.  It took a lot longer and was much more involved than I thought it would be.  Let's just say I was up way too late last night!  I knew it was worth the effort though when Grant came home from school and saw it.  His eyes lit up and he loved it!  Success!

We got Grant this fun picnic table for his birthday and a watch.  He can't tell time yet, but he loves watches and it's digital so maybe he'll figure it out.  Back to the table.  I searched for just the right table. I think we found it!  Look at how many kids can fit around this thing!  My small amount of hope for a warm and sunny day didn't work out.  It was cold and rainy.  But we still had so much fun inside.  The great thing was that soccer practice got canceled and I was able to take a really long nap after the party! Thank you Keith for staying home from work this afternoon!!!!!

Love this picture.  It's so classic.  It will be so fun to show to these kids when they are all grown up.

Brett was such a good sport today.  He got in on all the fun.  He loved his balloon and wouldn't let go of it until he went to bed...bath and all.  And in an effort to get myself in the picture more, here's me with Brett brushing his little teeth.  He's so squish-able!  

HAPPY BIRTHDAY GRANT!  I CAN'T BELIEVE HOW MUCH YOU'VE GROWN!

WE LOVE YOU!
