Erik's 5th Birthday Recap


Hope you all had a very happy and blessed Easter! We had a very fun weekend with weather sent down from heaven!!! Good Friday was Erik's 5th birthday and we had a wonderful day with sunshine, bike riding, a 1/2 day at the park, gifts, cake, and then ended the day by going out to dinner at Erik's favorite restaurant. Kaitlyn was very well behaved and so we all had a very nice time. This restaurant is called "The Hippo" and is the kids favorite. It isn't at all a "French-style" restuarant, more the American TGI Friday's sort. They have a kids activity corner, Disney movies playing and always give out giant helium balloons to the kids upon leaving. This year since it was Easter, they even had a real bunny in a cage for the kids to admire. Erik LOVED the bunny and spent a good deal of time running back and forth between his cage and our table so he could talk to him. It sure was fun!! After dinner we headed home and had a feast of delicious French praline birthday cake. It was our first day of day real summer weather too! The kids ran around in short sleeved shirts all day. All in all it was a fun-filled magical day for my little 5 year old boy. I have a lot of photos from Easter to post also, but won't get to those until later on in the week ;)
