Today was Connor's 7th birthday. He woke up and yelled, "Happy Birthday" to himself. Then he came in the kitchen and gave me a big hug, hugged Zander, and then hugged Annika who defensively threw herself back away from him because she thought he was trying to wrestle with her, and looked shocked when she realized it was just a hug!
After stake conference we went over to Richard and Maralee's for his birthday party. We had steak and favorite potatoes at Connor's request. All of his cousins who live in the state came, and Connor had a great time.
This is his Indiana Jones cake. I used to make elaborate cakes for my kids' birthdays, but then they figured out that ordering a cake from Target means they get more toys. Smart kids.
Connor blew out all of his candles, and then had ice cream. He told his Uncle Matt (Mike's brother) that he wanted all of the kinds of ice cream (there were 4) and ended up with so much ice cream he didn't have room for cake. Not that he cared. Like I said, the cake is just a vehicle for toys.When we got home he told me it had been a good birthday, which is really all you can ask for.
