Celebrating 6

My baby turns 6 tomorrow. That just doesn't seem right. But it's true. I should know -- I was there when it all happened. Tonight he celebrated with 8 of his good friends. This was the year he could have had a "big" party (at My Gym, or somewhere like that). Instead, he said he wanted a back yard dog party. Upon arriving, the guests went to the Adoption Center to pick up their dogs. They drew numbers which matched up to a dog to keep it all fair, filled out an adoption form and name tag (rubber bracelet collars with paper tags). They had dog bone shaped graham cracker snacks, pizza, fruit salad and carrots for dinner. Multi-colored cupcakes with blue frosting and sugar dog heads on the top (this what was negotiated after I stirred C away from fondant, which he really wanted). We had a dog bone shaped pinata, and watched Milo & Otis. Unfortunately, we couldn't plan the party late enough to really be able to watch the movie too well, but it was cute. At least for a little while. C had a great day with all of his best buddies. And Nina & Papa even came down! He's a very happy guy.
