Party #2

It still amazes me that my guy is 5 years old already!
We had lunch with Grandpa H, yesterday, because he had Fall Ball that evening. When we went to leave he gave Big T part of his gift. A scooter! He was so excited.
After lunch it was time for me to come home and make his cake. I am pretty happy with it. I wish I could have done more with it, but it still looks good.
Hubby and I had so much fun making Big T's gift. First he opened up a bag that had a belt with a frog for a sword, a helmet, and "boots".
Then he opened a bag with a new sword made by Papa.
And the last part to our gift....the shield. ("Just like Christian," Titus said.)
We had to wait to bust the castle pinata (I made it as well) until after Grandma B and our friends left. It was raining and didn't stop until later. But the children like it.
After bath time Big T wanted his knight outfit on again. The only thing I didn't make was the breastplate. I ran out of fabric. So for now, it is an old plastic shield with elastic attached.
He got too spoiled this birthday. His Grandpa and Grandma K gave him Leg0s (loved them), more knights, a horse, a science set, and a couple of other things. But he put his knight outfit on first thing this morning!

Show and Tell Friday (10/5)

Welcome to "Show and Tell Friday!" Do you have a something special to share with us? It could be a trinket from grade school, a piece of jewelry, an antique find. Your show and tell can be old or new. Use your imagination and dig through those old boxes in your closet if you have to! Feel free to share pictures and if there's a story behind your special something, that's even better! When we went to the Fall Festival a couple of weeks ago Hubby bought the children wooden swords. They have had so much fun with those...pretending to be knights, pirates, and soldiers. Well, hubby decided that he could make them just as well or better. So here is a finished sword made by hubby. (He actually ended up making seven!) Our local leather shop cut out the pieces for us which cut down on our work tremendously. Hopefully I can show off one that is much bigger soon. Hubby decided that he needs some protection from Big T and Sweet E so he is making himself one. :) **This wasn...

Feel free to share pictures and if there's a story behind your special something, that's even better! Yesterday I was in our side yard raking up a pile of leaves for Sweet E to play in and I saw something out of the corner of my eye. It was bright red. I looked down and saw three bright red objects in the grass. I picked them up....I have never seen these before. We are thinking they may possibly be wild strawberries, but are unsure since we have no prior experience with them. (really have no clue as to what they actually are.) And...what in the world would they be doing in the yard at the end of October! I just wanted to share pictures to see what everyone else thought. I thought it wa...

Feel free to share pictures and if there's a story behind your special something, that's even better! This week I wanted to Show off Big T's latest adventure. Last week he attended Bible school and Grandma S' church. The theme was Avalanche Rance and I know there are a LOT of churches doing this one. It fit him perfectly since he has a love of horses. So I just wanted to share a few pictures from the last night of Bible school....or as Big T calls it, Cowboy School . ;) Here is a picture of Little E and Grandpa S waiting for the program to start. The next two pictures are of the children standing up front. Not good pictures, but you can tell they all have the "deer in the...
