5th Birthday Celebration

 Dallin started his birthday off with presents.  He was up at 6 a.m. ready to open them.  We held him off till 7.

 He was thrilled to get a double light saver.  So now we have a double nerf sword and double light saver.  The swords provide a lot of entertainment when they're out.  They get put in time out and then forgotten about every few days.  That's fine with me.


Dallin opened up one present announcing in his know it all/bored voice that he knew what this present was...books.  Then he totally stopped opening presents and just looked through the books.  Zane and I just looked at each other trying to figure out what was going on.

 Dallin had to find his last present.  He was led to the garage where he walked right past the bike below to the box.  He picked up the empty box interested until we pointed out that the bike was right in front of him.  Dallin was super excited.  This bike has a lever that you pull making the big wheels in back go up and you ride on little wheels that turn.  If you turn the handle bars at the same time as pulling the lever, then you will spin.  He has had a lot of fun with it. Dallin loves riding his two wheel bike and is always trying to figure out new tricks, one handed, no hands, no feet etc.  It is just a matter of time before he thinks up dangerous stunts.  I'm hoping to prolong that moment with this bike.

After present opening, it was time for preschool where Dallin brought cookies for all his friends.

Later that night my family came over.  We made grilled homemade pizza.  It is my favorite too!

Carter and Caleb are the only cousins that live close enough to join us.  Dallin did ask about Drew and Sam (live in the Netherlands) and his Utah cousins.  For him, the more the merrier!

We did a spider man cake this year.  Dallin thought it was awesome because he got a new toy too.


What a great day!
