Last week was a fun filled birthday week for Eli! He had been counting down to his special day for months. It's hard to believe that its possible for 5 years to fly by that fast.

We started his birthday off with our favorite friends at Dunkin Donuts. Because nothing says happy birthday like chocolate and sprinkles :). The day of sugar continued with cupcakes at school. Layla and I joined his class as they celebrated his special day.
We went out for a special birthday dinner that night at his favorite restaurant with Nana & Pop Pop and GG & Goomba.
That weekend we had an all things baseball party for the boy. He had been talking about a "baseball party" the whole year. He invited his closest buddies, and they had a blast! We had an abundance of ballpark food, and probably a little too much sugar. It sure was good, though! The kids were able to run their little hearts out, and we ended the day with some water balloon fun.
Sister really enjoyed herself. The park and sugar would be two of her most favorite things!
Thankful for the sweet friends and relationships that have been made over the last 5 years. We had fun celebrating with them!
Eli - You are such a joyful and fun loving boy. I love that you are tenderhearted, yet equally "all boy." You love to serve others, and I pray that you will continue to do so for all of your years. You are your sister's biggest fan, yet also her chief aggravator :). You have learned so much this past year, and we look forward to watching you grow into your new school as you begin Kindergarten. We love you so!
