Happy Birthday to my Big Boy!


It has been an amazingly busy week! Eric started kindergarten on Tuesday, and turned 5 years old on Friday! We had his party on Saturday and Eric and his friends, siblings and cousins had a BALL on the slip-n-slide! They also played a dinosaur scavenger hunt game, mauled a poor duck pinata brought by our friends Paul and Kim, and enjoyed the awesome blue dinosaur cake made with love by Grandma B.

We are amazed at how quickly the last 5 years has gone. Eric has grown and changed so much! We are blessed to have him in our lives. Here's a look back:

I hope Eric had such a happy birthday!! It goes so fast. I feel like Zen is getting so big, and I caanot believe he is 3 already.

I feel pretty sad when I read your blogs, because I want so badly to be there living these adventures with you. I want Zen to know you (and vise versa) and I feel like Ben's family here is so unhealthy for him, and I want us to be there with you and your family. And so, even though I am happy that you have so much fun and are so happy, I wish we could be a physical part of things like birthday parties, and a family game night, or whatever.

I love you, and give all the kiddos kisses from their family in Colorado.
