Birthday Week for the Three C's !!

On Tuesday of this past week Christopher turned four years old! Papa and I picked him up at pre-school and took him out for lunch. We expected that he would choose a local diner type restaurant that the kids all like to go to, but he said without hesitation, 'McDonalds'. So, off we went for lunch at Mickey D's. He seemed to have a great time and ordered a Happy Meal after telling us that he did not want a sad meal. He ate quite well and then we took off for the bike shop to pick out a new helmet for his birthday present.

 

That evening, the family, including Aunt Suzie and Uncle Superman, met at a sports bar for a birthday celebration dinner. Chris had been there quite some time ago and remembered a specific computer game that is available to play there and that was the basis for his choice.

Chris loved his dinner party and we all had a great time.

On Thursday Chloe and Claire turned seven years old! It happened to be my day to work in their classroom so it was particularly fun to be there and experience part of their birthday at school. Each of them had a special chair back cover put on their chairs....

 

And were each given a crown....

 

 



They were honored by the class reciting a special poem to each of them. I love their first grade class and their teacher....

They still had work to do but all in all it was a very special day for them.

 

 

 

On Friday Mike and Paula hosted a kids party for them at a local gym in their town. It was a great success from what I hear, all but two of their classmates attended.  Face painting was one of the many activities.

 

 

 

 

 



We finished off the week with a quick lunch out after church today. Happy Birthday Chris, Chloe, and Claire...and many more..... !  Now Grandma needs a rest!! :)
