Jonathan's 7th Birthday

Jonathan is 7 years old!  We celebrated his birthday today, a couple of days before his actual birthday, since we were flying to California for Pat and Melinda's wedding.  He'll have a party with friends later on in the month so this party was just a small family gathering.

He was very excited about his presents.  A huge 5-lion Voltron that, when all 5 are connected, form a giant robot. He had been asking for it for a while. The funny thing is that he knew what the presents were as soon as he felt the shape of the package. Then, the fact that there were 5 packages confirmed it before he even opened one of them.  I kept trying to tell him that we had bought him 5 new princess dolls but he didn't believe me. Grandpa and Grandma got him a new bike. He older bike was fine but he had outgrown it. His new bike is pretty sweet. Other family members have contributed presents or gift cards...translation: Transformers. Jonathan could start a collection with all of the Transformers he's bought with his own money or been given as a present.

His birthday wasn't complete until cupcakes. I included a couple of pictures because the look on his face is hilarious. You can tell that he savored each and every bite!  Happy Birthday Jonathan!
