Josh and Becca Thrap and Family

I was too busy yesterday and too tired last night to get to the computer to post, but yesterday was Cameron’s 6th birthday!!! My little kiddies are getting SO big! I spent most of the day running errands getting stuff that I didn’t realize we didn’t have. I asked Cameron what he wanted for his birthday if he could have anything, what would make it perfect? He said Alfredo, Totinos pizza, Brownies, Legos, video games, and Pokemon! So on one trip I took him with me and he picked out two Mario and Luigi video games. We got back just in time for him to gobble up some Totinos pizza before his party guests started to arrive. We had a nice little group of some of his best friends from school and church. All such CUTIES! They spent the majority of the time just playing and jumping in the pool. But then Josh brought out the water balloons! Which turned into an all out water battle! With Josh as the eventual loser! So I rescued Josh by declaring it time for cake and presents. Cameron had helped me pick out his cake at the grocery store earlier that morning. I had been planing to get him an ice cream cake, but he informed me that he didn’t really like ice cream and so at the last minute we went to pick out a regular cake. Unfortunately, it was a very warm day and on the way home the frosting on the cake melted and slid completely off one side of the cake! We stuck it in the fridge and were able to salvage it for the most part, but it made it difficult to decorate as we’d have liked, so just before putting it out I wrote his name on it and Jacob found some pokemon toys to top it off with. Parents started to arrive to collect their kids as Cameron was opening his presents, then it was time to clean up the yard and take the toys inside. Cameron really wanted to open all his toys and play with them, but I told him he’d have to wait because we needed to get ready for the second party! He made THE Cameron face at me! But in practically no time at all, the family started arriving for the second wave of celebration! We had all the local Aunts and Uncles and Cousins over for a lovely alfredo dinner, and for dessert…Brownies! Jason’s family brought a gift for Cameron from his Grandma Thrap and they got him LEGOS!!! And Aunt Jenny had found some of his absolute favorite Pokemon toys that he had been begging me for just hours earlier at the store! When the Aunts and Uncles left, it was finally time for everyone to watch the SYTYCD Finale show! AWESOME!!! Of course Cameron crashed halfway through. He’d had a long day.
