Well he did it. Brandon turned
6, even though I told him not to. ;) Monday May 11
th, the day before his birthday, Brandon came down with a terrible case of "pink eye." So after a quick trip to the doctor and the pharmacy that morning, we decided to use our day-out-of-school to have some fun and prepare for the next day's celebration! Here is my almost birthday boy helping me make the
buttercream icing for his cupcakes. He is fantastic at measuring! Just look how he didn't spill at all! ;)
We did lots of playing outside...we even found some new friends. Brandon thought it would be fun to let the snails have a race.
Of course,
his snail was in the lead.
Almost there Mr. Snail!
Yes! They finally made it! Okay, that is just the
stinkin' cutest face I have ever seen.
The next day, the BIG DAY, Brandon woke up to blue balloons all over the living room floor. There were birthday signs hanging around the room saying things like, "The Big 6!" and "I hope you have the very best day ever!" I think he liked it.
On the table was a list of activities that we were going to do throughout the day to celebrate. The first thing on the list was to have a "mashed potato and
Pineapple Fanta soda breakfast." What can I say, it's his FAVORITE!
The next thing on the list was to go to school, wear a birthday crown, have friends sing "Happy Birthday" to him and enjoy cupcakes. He did just that.
Brandon's very very BEST friend! We love you London!
After school, we went to
Disneyland (we had to, it was on the list:)) with Uncle Greg, Aunt Angie and cousin Lily. Brandon wanted to ride on ONE ride and ONE ride only...Toy Story! And that is just what we did.
Brandon had $59 to spend at
Disneyland because of the
birthday "gift card" he
received. Spending that amount was way too easy for my
lil b-day shopper. It was just about a one-stop-shop for him. He bought a
Star Wars Mr. Potato Head named "
Spuda Fett," four
Star Wars figures, a "build-your-own" light saber and a container of cotton candy! Wow! Let's just say he was so excited!
The entire day was jam packed full of fun, but the very best thing was when Nana and Papa John met us at
Downtown Disney. There they gave Brandon the most wonderful gift...a
Nintendo DS! Brandon loves his special gift so much! He played with it all the way home. Matter of fact, he has not
stopped playing it!
We came home and finished up the day by playing Brandon's favorite game right now, the Pokemon dance game. (It's a crazy game that he made up. Lot's of Jonas Brother's music and
lot's of dancing!) Happy Birthday Brandon! I am so so thankful you came into this world.
