Ethan's 6!

Ethan's birthday was Tuesday! He turned 6. He informed us half way through the day that he didn't want to be six, he wanted to stay 5. Oh well, we have to move on with life! He had a good day.

First it was off to school for his normal school day. While Ethan was at school, Tabitha and I went to the dollar store in search of decorations (yes birthday on a college budget). We found some fun balloons with nemo on them and dinosaur decorations. When we got back we decorated the whole apartment to surprise Ethan.

Ethan was off the bus at 3:30 and when he walked through the door he kept saying "this is awesome". It was quite funny! We had a long evening waiting for Daddy to come home at 7:30. We ordered pizza to be delivered. Dinner was Ethan's choice since it was his birthday. We ran to Food Lion to pick up an ice cream cake (another choice of Ethan's).

While we waited for Daddy we set up the computer and chatted a little with Granny and Grandad (Nana, we need to get your camera set up so you can video chat too - over Thanksgiving definitely).

Finally Daddy was home and Ethan opened his presents! He got monster trucks, and a Nintendo DS! Boy was he excited when he saw the Monster Jam game for the Nintendo DS! After presents we ate our pizza and had cake. It was a great little laid back birthday. Now I have to start working on Tabitha's in November . . .
