22. What are you looking forward to now that you're 6? I can't wait to do stuff when I'm six that I couldn't do when I was five. {Good thought process}
We went about 9:30 and took--at Ethan's request--some muffins for his class at school.
Lola was more than a little excited to see him! These two are the best of friends, but can also
fight like cats and dogs sometimes...depends on their moods! I much prefer the good days :)
Lola was quite the hit with the boys in the class. Oh, dear.
Ethan was very excited to show me his "special birthday chair on the special birthday carpet". *grin*
A birthday crown from his teacher!
First bite of his favorite muffins....
The class all sang to him and he got his "birthday spankings". All in all, a successful morning!
Later that afternoon, I worked on his cake and some accessories.
I found online how you could dye rice, so Shane worked on that, while I worked on decorating his cake.
Ethan requested a Bowser cake and I freaked out...but then I remembered
Pinterest!
We had a lovely dinner....Ethan requested his favorite. Tacos :)
Right after dinner, Ethan got a phone call from Grandpa Danny!
Then later, Grandma 'Nette and Grandpa.
After that, we started on the presents. We had a bit of catching up to do because
of some sickness over Christmas and Lola's birthday...so she opened a few first.
She's still on that Hello Kitty kick. *grin*
I have to say....I just think that "present-reaction-pictures are priceless! The looks on their faces....
Ethan
Colin
Ethan again
Cameron
and Ethan some more.
Ethan loves sheets....last year, it was Mario Kart, and this year....
Angry Birds!
The best for last--his favorite, Super Mario for his DS.
Then, the rest of the family got here and we started in on Christmas celebrations!
Livy opening her Violet
Aunt Karen and her birthday snuggly blanket (those were
a popular gift in our house this year, they are the best!)
Soon, Daddy led Ethan in to the kitchen...it was CAKE time!
The finished product. I couldn't wait for Ethan to see it!
His reaction was awesome. I don't think he could even believe it!
We sang Happy Birthday, and he got all the candles out in one whiff.
His birthday was very special....here's to many, many more years with this precious little man!
We love you Ethan!
