SIX

It seems like every year goes by quicker and quicker. Every year I find myself saying "where did the year go?!" Now I have a little six year old who isn't so little anymore! Will had a great birthday and is such a joy to our family. Will is a sweetheart. He has a big heart and loves people unconditionally. He loves to play outside and still loves Star Wars! Will loves to play the Wii and really enjoys drawing still. He is doing great in Kindergarten and is already looking forward to first grade!
To celebrate Will we had some family over and had some appetizers and Will's request for dessert: brownie bites, cherry ice cream, with whip cream and cherries on top. I did not complain, it was all pretty tasty!

 Will still loves the color green and wanted a "green" party. He was confused as to why we couldn't do another star wars party this year. I tried to tell him that we probably won't do a "party" every year and he was a little bit disappointed, but I think that once he saw that we were still celebrating him, he was okay with it. :)
We celebrated his birthday on a Sunday so our families could come be with us, and then on Monday, his actual birthday, he got to take treats to his class, and then we went to Olive Garden for dinner (also his request). After Olive Garden, he wanted to stay up late to watch Star Wars with Mom and Dad while Eli was asleep.
We had such a fun time celebrating Will and appreciate so much all of our family and their support for Will.
Grandpa taught Will how to squirt whip cream into his mouth, he thought that was pretty awesome.
And of course a party wouldn't be a party without a little Eli in it! He loved these glasses of Will's and wore them around all afternoon.

We love Will so much. He is such a good boy and we feel really blessed to be his parents. He is learning and growing into such a great kid! Here's to another year!
