I can't believe it. I won't allow it! In the end there was nothing I could do about it, except throw him a party.
Russ thought it would be fun to tie a balloon to Pie dog.
Our first game was to guess the number of Legos in the jar. The winner got to take home a box of Mega Blocks (like Legos, but cheaper).
This is the first cake I made on Jonathan's actual bday. It did not make the final cut.
This is the cake I bought. My aunt did the writing and placed the Legos. Sadly, one of the Lego men was later attacked by a giant Lego man-eating dog because she wanted the frosting that was stuck inside his leg.
The main event was a treasure hunt. Each team had to collect all their clues (which included pieces to a Lego set).
Once they had all the clues they had to assemble their Lego cars as a team. The first team to finish won a special prize.
Presents! Boy did this boy get spoiled by his friends and family!
Before eating cake and ice cream, we had a building contest. We gave each child a pile of random legos from Jonathan's massive collection and they each had to build an original creature. These kids are good. I was very impressed with what they came up with.
Finally, we had cake and ice cream. Afterwards the kids played with their Lego creations until it was time to go home.
I think a good time was had by all. We really appreciated all the friends who came to the party and especially the help from Colleen, Kathleen and Christina.
A few other things that have been going on...
The morning of his party Jonathan took a test for the ALL (Accelerated Learning Labs) program in our school district. We will find out in 5 - 6 weeks if he is accepted. The testing took 4 hours, but Jonathan was extremely good natured about it.
These are just a couple of things I've made recently.
I made these cute valentines treats for Jonathan's teacher and some other family members.

We had a party for Chinese New Year / our cousin Nic's bday. I decided to bring fortune cookies dipped in chocolate. Everything is better dipped in chocolate.
