He had a tall order for his cake.....Harry Potter of course----and he wanted, "When Harry was casting the Expeliaramous charm and Voldemort was doing the Avada Kadavra curse and the spells collide and then Voldemort dies...." hmmmmm.........so........I printed out a picture of that "scene" and held it above the cake. And he thought it was the coolest cake ever! phew! (And he didn't just want 5 candles, because that was boring and not a challenge at all to blow out, so....he got the whole box!
Happy Birthday to my favorite 5 year old!!
I had a piano festival that morning and was worried I wouldn't be there when he woke up and wanted to open presents....silly me......6:30 and all the presents were torn into!
Harry Potter Legos from Grandma and Grandpa were a hit all day!
And Adam made him a Harry Potter broom! Which was pretty much the coolest present any 5 year old, Harry Potter obsessed, boy could ever even dream of.
Look side-ways :) It's Ashton on a broom!
Preston is a rolling machine! We'll just enjoy this before he starts crawling.
Later that day we "colored" Easter eggs. Did you notice I didn't say dyed? Nope....colored with washable crayons. They loved it. Who knew it could be that easy?!
This is Ella coloring an egg.
And Livi concentrating hard on coloring her egg. She broke about 4 of the eggs. :)
Easter day we went to Adam's parents house. It was a beautiful day!!
My boys. :)
Livia with cousin Brooklyn
And at Grandma and Grandpa's house they dyed eggs. That's fine with me....if they want to deal with the mess then more power to them! (We're sticking with just crayons at our house)
Happy Easter to all!! And what a wonderful Easter it was. I just want to share that I am so grateful for my Savior and grateful for His sacrifice for me and for all. That we can repent and become clean because of the Atonement and be able to live with our Savior and Heavenly Father again. I am so grateful.
