Sweety Turns Five!

Thanks, Amy, for letting me shamelessly steal photos off you and immediately re-post them here. You make my life easy. (Click here to see her original post)


On his birthday we celebrated with family.











He LOVED the work gloves from Grandpa B. He didn't take them off until bedtime!





Smarty's doing his best to look tough here. ;)












A few days later, we hosted a party for all of Sweety's friends. I couldn't figure out what activity to do, at Sweety's party, that wouldn't turn into a dirty mess in our backyard. Finally Ben suggested that we just embrace the mud that is our yard, so we did. We had a BLAST!










 Ben is brilliant at cake decor. Sweety loved the trucks.


After presents and cake, we gave everyone a bucket, started the hose, and turned them loose on our dirt pile out back. We had mud holes, a slip 'n slide, a splash pool, and after a while, Ben turned a hose on our slide for good measure. It seems like there was something for everyone, and I think we all had a fantastic time!
