We had a lot of fun for Oliver’s birthday.  Shane headed off to work and I put aside all my chores to read with the kids.  Then because it was sunny out we went for a long walk and visited all three parks in our area.  After lunch Daddy got home and the playing and screaming commenced once they realized he wasn’t going back to work.  Late in the day I asked what Oliver wanted for his dinner.  “Pizza!” he replied.  So they watched Transformers (the cartoon) while I made pizza’s up.  After dinner we opened presents and ate Oliver’s much anticipated cake.  He already knows what he wants for next year.  We will see how long that lasts.  We all told Oliver what we like about him and then the kids played with the new toys while Shane and I relaxed.  There is something about little family parties that are so relaxing and fun.  To top off the day the kids took their squirt guns to bath time.  We are so happy Oliver is part of our family.  Click here for more pictures.
