Birthday fun times

Gavin's 4th birthday party was a blast. I asked him what he wanted for his birthday:
"hmmmm" thoughtfully "I want a sword. And....hmmmmm.....that thing at B's house. And a football."
"Anything else Gavin? How about a camera, just for you?"
Gavin replies "Nope, just a sword, that thing at B's house, and a football. That's all I want." The thing at B's house was a squishy dinosaur that my mom bought and he found before his birthday. My mom told him that it was supposed to be for his birthday and then Ben promptly put it up and told him to wait until Sunday. So, naturally, he wanted that. I guess it's not about having what you want, it's about wanting what you have.

He also requested that Daddy make his "fruit" cake to look like a space ship. A Pirate Space Ship.

Mommy and Gavin cheesing for the camera together before his guests arrived.



Argh! A pirate! Davi showing off the homemade (that's right, we made them!) sword, eye patch, and pirate's hat.




Gavin getting ready to search for hidden treasure.



Kiernan was the only kid who actually wore the eye patch for any amount of time.



The pirates checking out the treasure they found from following the treasure map.




And, because a treasure chest full of candy wasn't enough, a pinata.


A Pirate Space Ship made entirely from fruit!




Best buddies getting ready for cake



Saying good bye. What a day!
