Ian's 6th Birthday

Before we talk about our eldest turning the big 0-6, I have to show this picture. Yeah, that's my kid. He's so "GQ". Chelsea took pictures of us while we were in Montana. This picture just cracks me up. Where did he learn this? It wasn't from his dad, I'll tell you that! Anyway, this pose came out of nowhere! Here is a more accurate look for Mr. Hotstuff himself:



Ian is 6. Yes, SIX! Seriously, time flies. I am so proud of the young man he is becoming. He loves to be busy, especially busy with sports. I am asked 87 times a day when we are going golfing. He loves to talk about all kinds of sports, who is playing who, which teams we are cheering for, etc. He makes up Minute to Win It games for us to play all the time. He is kind and caring and hilarious. We love you, Ian!

His birthday party was a riot. We had lots of little friends over, jumped on the trampoline, played, made personal pan pizzas, had cake and opened presents.

The party table before the tornado hit.
He wanted a layered rainbow cake and he wanted to help me make it. Fun little memory for the two of us!



Happy Birthday Big Guy!

Amanda! I haven't checked your blog (anyone's blog, really) in months! Sounds like you're having some fun and, by the way, you look great in those cruise photos. I'm impressed that you remodeled *another* kitchen -- you're either insane or very talented! Hope you and your cute family are doing well!
