Since Joshua ended up spending his "real" birthday at home (due to pneumonia) we tried to make the best of it! So, Bryan assembled his new bike late one night (note to self -- probably worth the $10 next time for assembly!) and we had him go on a "treasure hunt" the next morning. Yep -- it was hiding in the downstairs bathroom! He hasn't had a chance to ride it yet -- I guess that the joy of having a December birthday :(.
We had to postpone his "friends" party, but did manage to sneak it in last week. Just had several of his friends over for pizza and a few games. Have you tried getting 6-year olds to smile lately?????
Not sure if his picture was taken before or after the "knock, knock" jokes started! Now that was pure entertainment . . .!
They painted some cars (meant to look like "mario" cars) -- and then we glued Mario in them!
Like I said, we're having trouble in the "smile" department!
Opening gifts . . .
Cupcakes and ice cream! These were supposed to look like the "one up" cupcakes from Super Mario brothers -- but Joshua thought they looked more like Bowser's Back . . . so Bowser's Back it was!
Several days later we had a "family" get-together!
He was enamored with the "trick" candle!
And several random things . . . Joshua finished his book several weeks ago in Sparks, and as a reward, he got to pick a prize from the "Sparky Suitcase." Just happened to go through when he was making his very important selection . . .!
Yes -- that would be my phone in the toilet. Thank You Tyler.
We watched some neighbor kids last week, and the kids were SOOO excited to be able to have a "slumber party" for a bit before their parents returned. They were really cute!
