Bounce Around

After school yesterday, we celebrated my birthday again with some neighborhood friends and a couple friends from school. We started at 4pm, it was the most perfect day ever to play outside. Everyone kind of ran nutty between the playset and the bouncy house. Mom found a giant tarp and Dad let us put it outside. It was fun and the big kids were really good about taking turns with the little ones. Then it was cake time. All the other Moms had to be tickled pink that we fed the kids cake at 4:30 in the afternoon. My cake literally took the cake. It was amazing. The best creation ever! She used my own baby dinosaurs and put little frosting party hats on each one. Mom was certain I would cry when we cut it, but I didn't. Then we strung up the dinosaur egg pinata -- Mom is getting pretty good at making those by now since this is year 2. We all filled up our goody bags, played a quick game of pin the horn on the Triceratops (again, year 2) and everyone went on their merry way. Instead of gifts, we had everyone bring a food pantry donation. We accumulated around 25 canned goods and some dry goods as well. We'll be going to donate them this weekend. A few stinkers broke the rules and gave me a few gifts, but I didn't complain. I'm pretty stoked about the new scooter and practiced riding it around the garage today -- it is very good for my balance and coordination. It was just a super time. Mom and Dad had a blast too! What a great way to kick off what looks to be a very fun and exciting year for me. I like being 6 so far, it really suits me well!

Ciao for now. Oh and here are some pics from the fun.
