Happy 7th Birthday

Jackson is now 7!  WOW!  Seems like yesterday he was just a baby!  I think he had a good time!  His birthday fell on Spring Break Week from school, but we had Nana and Papa Akins in town.  We ended up going to the zoo on his birthday, but original plans were to take him to see the new LEGO movie.  We switched the days up due to rainy weather!  We can home, ordered pizza, opened presents from the family and ate brownies!  He got lots of good stuff - lots of money, the new Lego Marvel for PS3, a Star Wars PS3 game, and  a Hot Wheels track set.




 
Nana and Papa Jackson were planning on driving down, but plans changed and his gift from them came in the next day.....an ipad mini.  Can you say SPOILED!
 
 
Then a few days later we had his birthday party - we decided on a Campout Sleepover with a couple close buddies.  It was lots of fun despite spending only 5 minutes in the tent (they heard a noise)!  HA!  And I realized that 7 year old boys love LEGOs, Star Wars, and video games!  And he actually got more LEGO sets from his friends, which they put together in no time!
 
 
I found these cute battery operated lanterns for all the kids! 


 Meyer clan came over for the cookout and cake and then Matthew ended up going over to their house and spent the night.  This is the best we got! 
 Jackson requested my Grandma's Chocolate Cake for his birthday cake....which I turned into a campfire.  Too bad my icing didn't turn out like hers, but it was still yummy! 
 Boys and their LEGOs! 
 
Happy Birthday Buddy!
