We celebrated Andy’s birthday yesterday with a trip to Portland. We went to two music stores (we love going to music stores), wandered the mall, had supper at Red Robin and dessert at Krispy Kreme!!! Yummy!!!
After we got home, the boys all piled back in the van and went to stay with friends on their last night before school starts again on Wednesday. So, while I was enjoying the quiet I got to thinking about other fun years we celebrated Andy’s birthday. The year that he turned 5 came to mind…
When Andy turned 5, clear back in 2000, we lived in one of my favorite houses down in Rockwood. We had a family party on his actual birthday that year.
The highlight was getting his bike…
I love the look of surprise on his face!
And this unknown gift was apparently something he really wanted, too! I just wish I could remember or figure out what it was???
Look how excited Andy and Zack are!
That year for Christmas, the boys all got life-sized stuffed dogs. So Andy got some “supplies” for their new puppies. Their favorite was the box of Milk Bones that was filled up with candy! As you can see, Will enjoyed them a LOT!!! LOL
It was such a fun birthday party that Andy didn’t even mind getting clothes…
Clothes are fun as long as they are Buzz Lightyear clothes!
We also had a snowman themed party for his friends that year. I bought all kinds of snowman stuff on clearance after Christmas!
We even had snowman pb&j sandwiches!
But to make his snowman birthday even more special, God gave us snow when we woke up that morning!!! Now that was a terrific birthday present!
We had lots of fun with all his friends!
Happy Birthday, Andy!!! We love you and are so proud of you and hope you have a super wonderful year!!!
