Grant is 7!!

Grant was really excited for his birthday this year.  His birthday was at the end of our spring break this year.  We had a little Lego party at home and a friend party planned for the following week.

I got a little Lego set for Grant to build (to keep him from bouncing off the walls on his birthday).  Then we decorated the cake with the Legos.  He placed them on there.

We had spaghetti for dinner at Grant's request.

This chocolate cake is universally loved by everyone in our family.  Including me.  The kids kept telling me how good the cake was.  Get the recipe HERE.

We did a little treasure hunt to find Grant's gifts

He had fun opening gifts

John had birthday envy and told me wanted all the things Grant got when it was his birthday.  

Maybe Grant will share with him.

Our Lego piñata.

Happy 7th Birthday Grant!  I always worry with him about his birthday because he gets so excited and has such high birthday hopes.  He never seems to be disappointed though although he does give me a lot of direction about how the birthday should be.  I guess that's good he can communicate what he wants.  And he seems to have great expectations for birthdays.  But he was happy.
