Jackson's 5 years old!

So, its been a little while since Jacksons birthday, but our internet hasn't been up and running so I haven't been able to post pictures. But, here they are, especially for my mom. Jackson had a wonderful birthday. We surprised him in the morning by putting balloons between his door and a blanket that was help up by a huge ladder, as pictured below. So that when he opened the door the balloons all fell on him. He loved it and started laughing.





Jackson really wanted a buzz lightyear for his birthday. So, that's what he got.




Of course we had to go to Chuck E Cheese.





Later on we went to the new Kung Fu Panda movie and then went to dinner. I so didn't want to make two cakes for his birthday since I was already making one for his party. So it worked out to put candles in a donut at the restaurant.



Jacksons Kung Fu Panda cake as requested. I've really had a lot of fun making all the kids birthday cakes that they've wanted over the years.




This year for Jacksons Birthday party we had it at the Commons, pictured below, which is a huge indoor play area that just opened a month ago. Its been great to take the kids to when you just need a day out of the house and don't want to go outside where its so humid and hot. It worked out great for his party. We had cake and ice cream, Dave did games like hide n seek with all the kids, and opened presents. It was a lot of fun to see Jackson so excited and having such a fun time.






















Megan was exhausted after the party. She was so tired that she fell asleep right on the floor. I was doing the dishes and I looked over and she was completely out. She has never done this.
