Happy 5th Birthday Colby!

I know this post is a few months late, but I have been so busy lately! So I will try my best to keep up with blogging more often. So my little boy is FIVE years old now! Where has the time gone?!?! He was so excited about turning five and starting Kindergarten. He LOVES being in school. He LOVES his teacher and all his new friends he has made. He even has a little girlfriend that he talks about ALL the time. The way he described her in the beginning was "she has brown hair and she wears bows in her hair". I have since met Avery and her mom and she DOES have bows in her hair! She is a sweet little girl. I am so glad that Colby is making new friendships and enjoying his time in school.

Every night when I tuck him into bed I lay down with him and he tells me all about his day. He tells me what he learned that day, who he played with at recess, what they did in PE, Art, Music, and Science, who he sat with at lunch and all the other exciting things that happened in his day. Those little talks that Colby and I have before he goes to sleep are priceless. I know they will be different and a lot less detailed, but I hope that our "talks" will continue as he grows up. I love that little guy so much!

Ok, back to his birthday...His birthday was the day before school started so we just had a small little party. His cousins and a few friends came. The kiddos had a blast playing games and climbing in the play area. Aunt Sandy and Uncle Phil were here the day before his birthday and he was so excited about the gift they gave him...a TENT! Colby is very into the "great outdoors" just like his daddy so he was all about this tent! He talks about camping out all the time!

Here are a few pictures of the tent and from his party. Also a look back at five precious years...
