Happy Fourth Birthday Dawson!

Dawson!  Four years old.  I love it, because it's such a fun age.  Today we had a little play date with your preschool friends from school.  We sang Happy Birthday, played John Deere's in the beans, jumped on the trampoline and enjoyed the balloons.  You seemed to have a fantastic time, and it was a nice way to make the day special for you.




Your Cake, handcrafted by Mom.  A few flaws here and there, but I am proud of the final result.  A tractor cake was the only one that would do!


You helped me decorate the table with John Deere plates, party hats and blowers.  We also made a craft with scrapbook paper with a barn on it and farm animals.  Everyone seemed to enjoy this easy little craft.  You were so excited all morning long for your friends to arrive.


Daddy had to go to a work Christmas party this evening, so we decided to open birthday presents first thing in the morning.  A John Deere Mega Blocks Set!


Surprisingly enough, the John Deere Calender was the biggest hit.  You have been pouring over the pictures and repeatedly asking for me to find today's date on the calender.  


We also took you to Red Robin for pizza and chocolate milkshakes this weekend after church.
