I am not in a habit of giving birthday parties to my kids. It just seems like there is always so much family to celebrate with that it seems like a party all the time. I have given parties when they turn 5 and 8, so Micah was excited to have a party this year. We had the party at an indoor swimming facility, and it was a blast. There were 15 boys, 1 girl cousin and his siblings. What great fun!
Every few minutes waves would come and so the boys would take their tubes right up against the wall and wait for them to come. They also played football in the more shallow part of the pool, but they had to use an imaginary football since the lifeguards wouldn't let them use a real one.
My pretty bad attempt at different kind of ball cupcakes. I would love to be good at baking things like this, but I'm not.
Micah's birthday present from us is throwing him a party, but I was so shocked about how generous people are. He got some great stuff and the boys really knew Micah and what he likes.
The night of his birthday we did sing him happy birthday and celebrate with an ice cream cake his Pops brought him. What a great kid he is. He loves to laugh, the Charges (NFL football team), playing with his friends, any sport that is in season, laugh, teasing his younger (and older) siblings, always has a smile on his face, gets tired at night like his mother, and again is always laughing/smiling. We are so lucky to have his spirit in our home.
