Our Birthday Boy





Tyler turned 6 on April 13th! He had serious plans for his party: play with dinosaurs, only 2 buddies from his kindergarten class, pin the tail to the T.Rex game. Not to be swayed.



A "Dinosaur Crossing" sign with dino footprints leading to our front door.



Immediately after they arrived, Ty loved taking his friends on a tour of the party decorations, cake and party plans.







They played with dinosaurs, colored dino pictures, made dino fossil rubbings, matched dino bones with dino pictures and had a dinosaur storytime.



Just look at these happy faces! What a fun day!

After the party, we had dinner and then the boys watched "Tangled" for the first time. They loved it and have watched it or parts of it each day since then. We rented it from Netflix and I think it will be tough to send it back. What a great movie!

We gave Tyler a drum set for his birthday. Yes, it's true. This boy is a natural and we are just so happy the set came with earphones. I love to watch our drummer boy grooving to the tunes as he plays. He's in heaven and already told me he wants a regular full drum set. I told him he needs to practice for a LONG TIME on the the electronic one. A long, long time.

WooHoo! I love birthdays and you did a GREAT job. Tangled is on sale this week at Target. DVD 13.99. The BluRay is cheap too. FYI. :) Yes, It was Heidi. She looked great and her daughter is a cutie. I saw this yummy restaurant on a Food Network show near your place.... I thought to myself... Time for vacation! :) Miss you guys.

Thanks! Do you remember the name of the restaurant? We'd love to see you guys...we could take you to the beach! But, not yet. It is still way too cold ...and wet. July-Sept. is the best time for the beach around here. But really, we'd love to have visitors ANYTIME!
