Happy 4th Birthday Nathan!!!!

We got to celebrate Nathan's 4th birthday this weekend.  We had so much fun with him!  Nathan was full of energy this weekend!  He had his birthday party at the Frisco Fire Department.  I thought this was such a neat idea for a party!  The party was held in the back room.  After all of the kids arrived, two firemen did a presentation for the kids.  They were all such good listeners!  The firemen went over safety, put on the fire suit and then showed the kids the fire truck.  At one point one fireman was telling the kids that if there was ever an emergency you need to call 9-1-1.  He really put a lot of emphasis on what is a real emergency and what is not and went over and over calling 9-1-1 on the telephone.  Nathan raised his hand and said, "But I don't have a real phone, I just have a pretend phone."  It was soooo funny how he said it!  My mom got it on video so I hope Ash puts it on her blog.  Here are some highlights:

 Here's Nathan with his friends Jake and Suzy.

Looking at the fire trucks.



 I thought this was neat.  These are the cubbies the firemen keep their equipment in.  Most of them had pictures of their families on the shelf above :)

This is Willow...isn't she a doll?

This is Haewon and her two boys.  She just had her second one a few months ago.  Doesn't he look all snug and sweet?  Oh, and I want that wrap :)

Group photo on the fire truck.  Do you see the fireman holding Charlotte?  So cute! 


Ready for pizza, drinks, and cake!

Then we went back to Nathan's house to open all of his presents he got from his friends.  He got a TON of cool presents!

Nathan is such a dog lover.  He adores Otis and Daisy.  Here he is rubbing Otis' paw.  Otis is in heaven!



Sweet Daisy.  She was such a good girl this trip...

except when she decided to sit on Charlotte's lap.

 Auntie Carrie and sweet baby Charlotte.

This is a shirt I got Nathan from Groopdealz.  He looked so cute!


That night my parents and Wayne's mom came over to have a birthday dinner.  Nathan then opened our gifts.  Mama and Papa gave him money and a set of Lincoln Logs.  Wayne's mom gave him money for the toy store, and Chris and I gave him a Leap Frog laptop.  He racked up this birthday!!




We had such a fun time celebrating!  Happy 4th birthday Nathan.  We love you!!!
