Here's to 5!







It surely was a fun day.
As if having a birthday party in a candy store isn't enough,
how about having a birthday party in a bakery/candy store?
Matt's party was surely a fun time for all.
All the children got to decorate their own ginber bread cookies with all the fixings (frosting and candy!)
I am sure they all went home with a sugar high!

Amy,
Not sure the sugar high waited until they got home! I am thinking that it peaked at the party! It really was so much fun! My kids had a blast! As crazy as it gets, it really is a great time for the kids!

Oh Amy JEAN Kelly, can you ever forgive me? How on earth did I turn Matt into a 6 yo instead of a 5 yo. All I can say is this--we can chalk it up to the 51 yo mind! HELP ME...HAHAHA! Well, it looks like a good time was had by all; Matt looks so darn happy! Okay, now at the risk of REALLY seeming like an airhead, I am not recognizing who is in the pic above Abby???? Did you throw in an unknown kid or should I just be checking out Oldster Homes right now? Hehehehe! Gosh, good friend I am...you're bummed about your baby getting older, so I make him ANOTHER year older. Sigh. Forgive? :)

I want to have MY birthday party in a candy store, how fun!!

COUNT ME IN! That sounds like a fairytale come true for any child. Amy, I will have to take some pics of this new yogurt shop we have near us called 'Big Spoon'. Toppings and candy line the walls...it is just incredible. When I was a kid, we were excited when the ice cream man came down the street. Boy, fun for kids has been kicked up a notch, hasn't it?!?
