Happy Birthday Simon

Simon had a busy day on his birthday. He had school with a costume parade & party in the afternoon. We tried to sqeeze in supper, presents & a cake of sorts before heading to soccer for 6pm. At soccer, Simon said, "I am running out of power"

(no wonder, that is a busy day for a 5 year old)

Simon really doesn't care for cake, at least not with icing so I thought about something that would be special just for him. He likes choc chip cookies so I made a giant cookie into a cake but would he eat it? No way. he said that he wouldn't like it because it is a cake & not a cookie.

Simon has been wanting ear muffs so Brayn bought him Montreal Canadiens ear muffs. He was so excited. We also gave him this picture.

Simon was just so excited about his birthday this year. So different from Micah who is always just, "whatever". Simon got to school & said to mr Lorenz, "I'm 5, I'm 5, it's my birthday today!!" and then was elated to go out for lunch with Bryan.

On the 31st, we took supper over to Bryan's parents since his Grandma is there and couldn't get out. We had a little party there. Simon got a Lightning McQueen computer along with a few others gifts from Auntie Melinda & Auntie Carmen and family.
