Happy Birthday Brooks!

Our sweet boy turned four this month- FOUR!  I can hardly believe it!  Somehow his birthday celebrations turned into a week long extravaganza.

Monday the 12th (his actual birthday) he woke up to streamers, balloons and birthday pancakes.

 He had a great day playing with some birthday presents and finished the day by going out with the family to pick out his big  present- a big boy bike!


On Friday Larry surprised brooks by waking him up early and taking him on an "adventure."  They traveled on the Megabus from Athens to Atlanta.  In Atlanta they rode the train (Marta) and went downtown to Centennial Olympic park and had fun playing on the playground and visiting the World of Coke.

On Saturday, we had Brooks' birthday party.  It was a Dinosaur adventure!





 The kiddos drew dinosaurs with sidewalk chalk and then threw water balloons at them to make them "extinct."




 Next they were paleontologists discovering "dinosaur bones" in our sand box.

 Cake and icecream!

 Lucy had her share of cake and ice cream too!



 The plan was to have a dinosaur egg hunt outside, but the rainy weather kept us inside to discover dinosaur eggs had been put in their explorer buckets :).  Our dinosaur eggs were filled with candy, toy dinosaurs and dino tattoos.

 Lucy got in on the dino egg fun.
