Happy 6th Birthday S!

We had a busy weekend.  We celebrated S's 6th birthday on top of starting basketball season!  I am ready for a nap.

Nana and Grandave came down to help celebrate.

Granny Jean also joined in on the festivities as well.  

S still loves all animals and wants to be a zoo keeper when he grows up.  Therefore, we had a wild animal party.  Here's the cupcakes that I made.

 I found a company that actually brings animals to your home.  S was able to pick five animals for them to bring to the party.  We had an alpaca in the backyard.  Baby girl tried to ride on him.

The owner/animal trainer did some education with the kids as well.  Here is the kingkajou.  He was a hit at the party.  It was great hearing the kids giggle watching him climb around.  The kids were able to pet or hold the animals.

  

The kids loved watching the bunny hop around the backyard.

S's favorite animal is a ring tailed lemur.  Sure enough, the company had one to bring.  The only problem was that apparently he had been grabbed by some 8 year old boys too much so he is a little skittish around kids.  The trainer only let the adults handle him.  So here is mommy with a lemur on her shoulder.  I was so not prepared for this.  (S and W were pretty disappointed that they didn't get to hold the lemur.)

We were so thankful to have wonderful weather and to be able to celebrate with his friends.
