Isaac was so excited for the Lego movie to come out the weekend we celebrated his birthday in Hays! He took classmates John W., Carson, and Blaise with him to see the movie and those boys had a giggly-good time. It's so fun to see Isaac interact with other young boys as we don't get to see that on a regular basis.
This picture shows Isaac being bummed the movie was over!
After the movie we drove the boys to our house to play, eat pizza & dessert, and open gifts. Gram & Papa were here watching the three girls while we were at the movie. Stella joined us along with the Wentling family and we had a great evening.
Royce was scheduled to work in Kansas City Feb 12, 13, 14 which is pretty normal for February. He usually gets to see Isaac maybe in the morning or evening of his birthday but is headed to or from KC on the 13th regardless. This year the kids didn't have school on Friday, February 14th or Monday, February 17th so we decided that Royce would leave for KC on the 11th then I would bring the kids to KC after school on the 13th so we could celebrate Isaac's birthday WITH Royce in KC and have Isaac's birthday dinner at T-Rex. It was a really great weekend! A few details of our plan had to change last-minute but we made the absolute best of the weekend and really, truly had a fun time with just the six of us celebrating.
Eating at T-Rex was fun, as expected. Being a popular restaurant we were there for about 3 hours which was much longer than we had hoped but Royce and I agree that the kids were absolutely fantastic being patient and waiting so nicely. They have a lot of play spaces to spend the wait time.
Isaac was so happy to be sang to by the restaurant staff!
We also decided to go to Lego Land while we were in KC. In keeping with the Lego theme of Isaac's birthday it was a perfect ending to our weekend. The kids had a GREAT time. Isaac was on cloud nine and he was excited to spend the birthday money that friends and family had given him (with most of them knowing he'd want to buy something BIG at Lego Land). When asked what Isaac wanted for his birthday the ONLY thing he would answer was "Star Wars Legos".
Swinging on a wrecking ball crashing into giant Legos!
A&C loved this pit of giant rubber Legos!
So many statues in this place.
It truly is amazing to see the large structures built out of Legos.
And finally home, with a day off from school to build the ultimate Star Wars X-Wing with his dad.
Here is Isaac holding his newest pride-and-joy!
All 560 pieces of the set he used his own money for.
A happy boy who had a very happy birthday.
Isaac,
We can't believe you are six! You are growing and maturing so much in Kindergarten this year. You are all boy and want to know how everything works. You are kind, still impatient with your siblings a bit, but you are the best brother they could ask for all the same. Thank you for being such a great kid. You make us laugh and you (finally!) don't get upset when people laugh at funny things you do. You shouldn't be upset - - you are truly a funny person! We love you so much and would be lost without your trail of socks! (...although feel free to test that theory anytime....) Make this sixth year the best it can be!
We love you!
