Gavin Turns 5!

Happy Birthday to our Gavin!  5 years old!  We had so much fun celebrating his special day.  Grammy and Grandpa Brown and our cousin Jack all came over for the party.  We opened presents at our house then went out for dinner at Gavin's favorite spot, Meatheads.  The restaurant was very kind to let us bring our cake there, so we ended our meal with Gavin's special-request shark cake.  It was delicious.  Since Daddy was in Las Vegas for work that day, we got to have a second birthday celebration the day after Gavin's birthday when Daddy returned!  For that, we headed off to Chuck-e-Cheese for some birthday pizza and skee-ball fun.  Erik ran around with the kids playing games and collecting tickets to exchange for plastic trinkets - nothing better when you're 5!  And beyond this, Gavin and his best friend Will hatched a plan to have a double-birthday party with their friends from school.  The only problem is that Will's birthday is in May, not March!  So we settled on April and are looking forward to jumping the day away at Pump It Up a few weeks from now.  More to come on that last installment of Gavin's 5th birthday extravaganza.  We love you, bud!

Gavin had always wanted some wings to match Cassidy's butterfly wings, so for his birthday she gave him pteranadon wings.  A huge hit!
