This kiddo was so excited about his birthday. As he was trying to fall asleep he said, "I think this is going to be one of my best birthdays ever." It should be noted that one of the reasons for his excitement is his tendency to know exactly what gifts he will be getting. He makes a very specific list and basically has no surprises at this point. (We did manage to sneak in one surprise gift from Lorelei though!) He knew his "asks" were going to be exciting the next day. It was also pretty great because between Monday being Labor Day, as well as celebrating Charlie and Makin's birthdays that same week (they are four days apart in age), we would have only really had Friday to do school. When I realized that, we just deemed it birthday week and had a week off of school. (Don't worry, he will still pass 5th grade. ;) )
He was mostly able to have nothing but fun. We did have a kink in the day when we had to unexpectedly take the car in for a repair, so we have an I-Owe-You trip to Scheels coming up! This year his supper of choice was pesto stuffed shells.

The following day was his celebration day (instead of a party) which was a day pass to Great Wolf Lodge for him and Charlie. They had donuts/kolaches on the way there and then spent six hours in the water park. Then the boys had fun at home playing all the things and having a sleepover.
