Colton's Birthday

Colton turned 6!!!  (Over a month ago!)  And now that he's in kindergarten, he actually has friends that he was very excited to invite over for a party!  So we had to indulge him.  I ended up just letting him bring two friends to the bounce house, and because of the way the timing worked, I brought Ryder and Camille, also, and let Kendra and Bentley fend for themselves at home.  Everyone had a wonderful time, and right when they were starting to get hungry, Craig picked up lots of pizza at Costco and we all met back at the house and feasted on pizza and then cake.  So that was a lot of fun!  Yay for Colton finally getting to have a party!

With Walter and Jack!

I was too cheap to fill this thing with quarters and make it go.  But Camille still enjoyed sitting on it!
All the pictures we took of them eating cake were terrible...  Oh, well...

A few days later we celebrated with Grandma and Grandpa.  Colton decided we were eating pizza at Mellow Mushroom, and then getting ice cream at Chaps-- I was thrilled because these are all my favorite places, too (and NO I did NOT influence him on this!!!!), but it did make for a bit of parking and walking and parking and walking.  But everyone managed just fine (yay for Grandpa's new knees!) and he had a lovely time opening his presents at the end of the evening.



He grabbed this one right away and said, This is probably clothes, so I'll open it first!"  Smart kid!

So cute!
And then his final present was a new bike, so that was very exciting!

Happy happy birthday to my big 6-year-old!
