What's so funny? Ethan's gift to Evyn was a piece of paper that was wrapped in tissue paper no less. On it he wrote, "This is not your gift." What a
jokester!
One day while hunting for a costume for Ian at Goodwill he spotted this purple sweatshirt and HAD to get it for Evyn. Evyn really likes purple (and green). As you can tell, he really liked it, too.
Amber's gift to Evyn was an "IOU" to do what Evyn wanted her to do for 24 hours ... like clean up. Not sure if it's been used yet. She also made him a little pouch with some cloth and buttons.
We also found a new game for the
Wii for him. It's called
Skylanders. It has little figurines that go onto a "portal" and you can switch them out. It's not an "active" game, but he does enjoy it.
We got him a couple extra figures to go with the start up set.
Lastly, the Diamond Head hat which I made for him out of Debbie
Macomber's Blossom Street yarn, which is wool. He likes to wear hats.
Getting his
Skylanders out of their box and learning how to play.
The "dirt cake" in the trifle bowl. It was SO yummy. The bottom is crushed
Oreos, followed by a mixture of cream cheese and cool whip, then homemade chocolate pudding, and then topped with homemade chocolate cake (crumbled) and then another cup of crushed
Oreos. I couldn't find dye-free worms, so I found natural jellied slugs and bugs ... just as fun.
These are the candles from his first birthday!
Happy Birthday, Evyn! We sure do love you a whole BUNCH!
