Brayden turn's 6

Brayden had a birthday!

He's 6 years old now.

Daddy was heading back to Alton for work later that morning and Hunter had to catch the school bus at 7:05. Brayden wanting his whole family to be present for his birthday party he chose to have it at 6:30 in the morning. 

So excited to see his very own pair of roller blades!

We probably have 5 different pairs in the garage and they get used almost every single day. The pair Brayden uses is about 2 sizes to big so he was pretty stoked he was given a pair that actually fits.  

This little man loves Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Batman right now. 

A new swimsuit, roller blades and a batman lego set from mom and dad. Madelyn gave him water guns and Kylie gave a TMNT puzzle that has been sitting in my closet for over 2 years now. Hunter and Emily hooked him up with all the candy and gum.

Following present time he got his favorite breakfast, blueberry pancakes! 

After breakfast we rushed off to school where he passed out his TMNT fruit snacks to all his friends. This is a day that we will always remember. Just a few hours after breakfast we learned that Grandma Grow had passed away. After spending several hours at my grandma's house with my mom, sister and my girls I came home emotionally exhausted.

We tried having pizza for dinner but discovered that Little Caesar's "lost" my order. Not wanting to wait 20-25 minutes for a new order I went next door to Pizza Hut. They don't have any hot and ready's and again not wanting to wait 20 minutes I went back to Little Caesar's thinking I'd have to get one of their hot n' ready's despite my recent vow I wouldn't ever go their again. Big shocker that they were out of their hot n' ready's and would still have a 15 minute wait. I walked out once again vowing I will never step foot in their place of business again. Little Caesar's and I don't have the best relationship! I came home at almost 7 pm empty handed. I pulled out our big frying pan, tortilla's and cheese. Brayden was a bit disappointed with no pizza but enjoyed one of his other favorites, a cheese quesadilla for dinner.  While I was gone Madelyn made a pan of brownies for this birthday boy. 

I hope he had a good day. I tried! I was pretty glad we was able to open his presents earlier in the day, Before life got a bit crazy!

Happy Birthday to you,
