Tyler's 5th birthday was a blast. We've been able to get outside all 5 times. Aunt Kim had the great idea of a silly string fight. Now we had done this before and Casey said never again because the silly string does not disolve easily. This time we were smarter and let the kids (little and big) go at it in the field next door.





Tyler wanted a waterfall cake and this is as close as I could get. He is still playing with the fish in the bathtub.

Tyler had been asking for a lizard for months prior to his birthday. We initially said no. He then moved to wanting a mouse then finally a fish. He would come up with these cute little ways to show us he could be responsible. This is one of them. It is a mouse with a water dripper and cheese. He came up with it all by himself. I thought it was pretty creative. Anyways we did get him a lizard. It is a leopard gecko named Pete the Spots (Petey for short).

Alison decided she wanted to try the dirt in the tree for the gazillionth time. It's still cute though. Did I just say that? NO ALISON!

Tyler is doing his ninja moves on the tramp. It never gets old. Great investment.
