Ethan turns 7

As I mentioned in the last post, we spent Ethan's actual birthday in Florida.  But we did fit in 2 separate family parties before and after his birthday!  (we skipped the friend party this year since we were out of town and so busy all month)

I did make Ethan a neat cake!  We might have to do a space themed friend party next year!  

 A pic of our family--we celebrated my birthday and my mom's and uncle's too while my grandparents were out visiting

 Celebrating with the other side of the family (another homemade cake, but not quite as fancy)

 The cousins wanted a front row seat for present opening.
