5th Birthday and Party
Happy birthday Aaron, how are you 5 already!?!
This year, Aaron’s birthday fell on a Wednesday so he had school during they day, which limited us to what we could do. He did manage to open up all his presents before school though and he was very pleased with the array of Paw Patrol figures and vehicles that he had (he is obsessed with Paw Patrol). His main present was the Paw Patroller from Mummy and Daddy, which he had been going on about for months! But he also had a selection of other Paw Patrol figures and vehicles that go with the Paw Patroller. So to say he was excited was an understatement! He also got a new chair, Pie Face, clothes, chocolate and sweets, books and a few other gifts. He was very happy with it all!
As usual, the birthday boy could choose what he wanted for tea, and because the weather was nice, he decided he wanted a BBQ up on Dartmoor, so that is what we did! We found a nice area to setup camp and had a nice BBQ and play with the football and scratch pad and ball. We all had a lovely time although there was a couple of hitches. Firstly, the lighter ran out so I had to drive to Yelverton to get a new one from the shop and then Aaron desperately needed the toilet, so Kelly had to drive him to the toilets in Yelverton. Apart from that, it was great!
The following Friday was Aaron’s actual birthday party with his friends, and it was held at Jump. It was a great two hours and the children were non-stop, apart from when they quietened down to eat their birthday food. Aaron chose to do football as part of the party, instead of a disco or party games, but some of the children were a bit too rough, so he ended up sitting most of it out. Typical Aaron! 😉 Generally, he had a good time though and got lots and lots of presents from the 13 other friends that went!
