A.J.'s Birthday

This weekend, along with Easter, was A.J.'s 7th birthday. We always love birthdays in our family. Since we had done Stone Mountain instead of a friend party, we just had family. It was very low key. Grandma, Pa, Kevin, Lesli, Emily, and Christian all came from Thomasville, GA. Aunt Laura came from Kentucky. And, Papa, Nana, and Uncle Michael came from North Carolina. Thanks to everyone for traveling for this special day!

We started with a birthday for A.J. in his classroom. This is his teacher, Mrs. Walters.


Here are his classmates.

A.J. wanted cupcakes with light sabers made out of candy. We settled on homemade cupcakes with store bought Star Wars toppers. Sometimes that is the best I can do! Then, on his actually birthday, we had family party time. We have been telling A.J. he had to wait for Christmas to get a Wii. He was trying to earn one by taking care of his games and videos. Instead, we orchestrated Grandma and Pa and Nana and Papa to go in together to get one for his birthday. Here are some pictures of presents he opened and a video of the shocked child when he got his Wii!
