Birthday Bash

Dayton was so excited for his birthday he could not sleep the night before and was up extra early that morning.  We tried to play it down that we were not really doing much for his birthday, but we had a few surprises for him.
  He woke up to his door covered with balloons and donuts for breakfast.
 I surprised him by checking him and 5 of his buddies out of school early for a birthday party.
I took them and all their scooters to the classic fun center.  It was great because there was nobody there so they pretty much just ran crazy.
This is the pirate cove.  They ran through and climbed all over it. If you look hard you can see Dayton in there somewhere.
 Some of the huge bounce houses they jumped on and slid down.
And this was really fun.  They turned off the lights and played music while the boys rode around on their scooters.  They played games and had races too.
 Cup cakes for the birthday boy!
After the party we went to dinner.  There was one more surprise waiting for Dayton.  Nana Decker came up for his birthday and brought another great buddy and cousin Kaden. They were so excited and inseparable the whole night. They even sat at their own table at dinner.
 Time for presents.  Camrie and Nana hid them all and then Dayton found them.
 Among the gifts were a new tennis racket and tennis balls.
 Who doesn't love money!
 Anything NY Giants is always a bonus.
 And just to keep him diverse he got some BYU stuff too.
 More cupcakes with Nana.
Yum.
And if all that was not enough Nana took Dayton, Kaden and Camrie back to her house for a sleep-over.  I went the next day to get them and we had a family party for both Dayton and I with more presents and cake. We were spoiled by friends and family all weekend.  It was great!

Hey Kristin. Hope you don't mind that I look at your blog occasionally. I just had to comment on this post. I so remember getting word that you had gone into labor with Dayton and thinking "Oh no. Not yet...it is too soon!" This post just made me so happy to see how big and healthy your boy is. He had a rough start. What a wonderful family you have. :)
