We had his birthday party yesterday, and it was a lot of fun! We had sub-sandwhiches, pasta salad, watermelon, chips and dip (Luke says it's not a party without dip...I tried to tell him he does a fine job being the dip...he disagrees.) and, of course, cake and ice cream! It was a fun challenge to make his cake, and it took 2 tries to get it to bake to perfection, thanks to my less than perfect oven. Frosting it stressed me out! People-you would LAUGH if you could be a fly on the wall during my "creative moments"! EEK! It turned out very cute and all the food was yummy, even if I do say so myself. We had about 8 people over and partied it up!
Luke built him a big sandbox for his birthday. Sadly, he only had time to get one load of sand before the company closed, but at least it was enough to let the boy play in! The first time he saw the sandbox he RAN to it...looked in...then RAN back to the garage to get my garden tools. So we came in and had him eat some cake and open presents...which we gave him some sand toys. THen it was a quick change into sandbox clothes, and back out to the sandbox til the thunder storm rolled in! He loves it! We made it big...so even when he's 10 he'll fit with a couple friends!
