Jacob's Birthday Weekend

Happy Birthday Jacob! Can you believe that this guy is already 5? When did he get so big? Here is a picture of Jacob with the alphabet fridge letters that Grandma Heiner got him.



Jacob had a lot of fun on his birthday. First, he helped me frost the cupcakes for his party.


Amelia even got dressed up for his party. Jacob tells me all the time that Amelia always wears her pajamas. So here she is wearing something else.


Jacob had fun at his Toy Story Party. First Jacob and his friends looked for Sheriff badges that were hidden around the yard.


Then they played pin the badge on Woody.


Thanks to Brenda for all the fun games at the party. The kids loved them! Jacob loved opening his presents from everyone and having cupcakes and ice cream.


The big surprise for Jacob's birthday was not really a surprise because he has been asking for it for quite a while. For his birthday Jacob wanted "a two-wheeled bike with training wheels". We found this really cool Buzz Lightyear bike that Daddy put together the night before his birthday (with Amelia's supervision).


Jacob waited until Daddy got home from work to open his bike. He absolutely loved it!



We also opened presents from Grandma and Grandpa Devereaux and Aunt Emily. Jacob was very excited to get a Lego camper. He wanted to put it together right away, but we didn't really have time for that.


The boys rode around the driveway for a while, and then we went to Jacob's choice of restaurant for dinner. He chose McDonald's because of the play-place, which was tons of fun for the boys. Then we came home and the boys rode their bikes again for a minute. Then we had cake and ice cream.


I picked up the cake at Wal-Mart, which was cool because it had a cake topper that is also a magnet. So now Buzz can fly on our fridge.

Here is a picture of the birthday boy.


Then on Sunday we had some time in the morning, so Daddy helped Jacob put together his camper. They thought it was pretty cool.


We also tried for a family picture using the tripod. Here are the ones that turned out best:
