Happy 6th Birthday Jaxton :)

Tonight we celebrated Jaxton's 6th birthday. We invited the cousins over for some cake an ice cream. I put a game together last minute to pass the time until both Grandma' got off work. It was pretty funny, we played dress up relay & a quick few rounds of Red Rover. Everybody gave Jax a great gift, he got just what he wanted this year. Thanks to you all.
On Sunday Grandma & Grandpa H. gave him a remote control roll around creature thing, Heidi's family gave him the remote control firefly he's been asking for ever since he saw Landon playing with his months ago & Melisa's family gave him a Batman Lego set. Jax and Ky both LOVE anything lego. Today Jax got a fun Nerf gun from Shannon's family, he loves it and now I know exactly what to get Brendon for his birthday...thanks Shannon. Of course both Grandma's had to bring another present, they spoil our boys so much. We are grateful for all that they do. Grandma H. gave Jax a transformer type bullet bike toy and Grandma L. got him some new Rollerblades. FUNFUNFUN. She's going to get some for herself so I thought, why not jump on the bandwagon and join the fun, looks like we'll be adding it to our long list of adventures this year. Josh and I bought Jax a dirt bike from my sister Heather, it's the bike that all of her kids learned to ride on, it was a great starter bike for all of them because it's not super fast. Heather gave Jax a brand new riding jersey and riding pants, along with some real nice riding boots that landon had grown out of. We so appreciate the hand me downs from Landon. A big thanks to Heather and Brent :) Josh is looking forward to the time he'll get to spend riding with Jax. Here are the pictures from today.

Jax, trying his best

Malachi
Taking off, he didn't make it very far until he face planted into the ground, but he got right back up and kept going

Malachi was trying so hard

Jaxtons cake, Ky helped me make it while Jax was at school


Dirt bike from mom and dad. Dad rode it in from the front yard, Jax was so surprised and so excited
Pretty funny, just his size ;)
Jaxton, checking out his new dirt bike, he didn't have a clue he was getting it
Ky asked if he could have one too, when he turns 5. He turns 5 in 3 weeks, probably not gonna happen.
Dad giving Jax his first lesson in riding a dirt bike. Dad's been needing a riding partner for such a long time.

Brake check
Off he goes! The kids were fascinated, they stood still in that spot for a good 15 minutes while Dad gave Jax the riding lesson
He picked it up pretty fast

Ky with his best buddy Brooklyn and little Addi

Jax was finally reunited with his one time best friend Brendon, they picked up where they left off, and now he asks too play with Brendon everyday. I am so glad he has a good friend like Brendon, he's such a good kid.

Grandpa pestering Ky, like always....of course Ky loves it. :)

Your blog is totally cute... you don't need my help. That looks like a fun b-day party. I just know Griff will be getting a motorcycle sooner that I want.

HEY!! Just stumbled across your blog from Merrial & Shannon's, whose I found from Amanda Leonard's (I think I could spend hours looking at blogs because you find so many people you know through other peoples blogs). I think it might be time for a blog update!! What have you guys been up to since your last post way back when?
