I can't believe how fast these past two years have flown by!
Where did our chubby cheeked toddler go?
Landon's actual birthday was on a Friday. Since Greg had to work, we decided to celebrate on Sunday after church. We had planned on a day in, doing low key, fun things with the boys. Unfortunately we woke up to horrific news that someone had opened fire in our local police department and shot 3 officers. Thank God, Greg was not working at the time. After hearing the news, he rushed to the hospital to support his friends and their families. Although that did put a damper on the exciting day, we tried to make the most of it, and the boys and I tried to celebrate anyway. Greg had to be at work by 6 that night (it would be an understatement to say it was hard to say "Good-bye, Be safe!" as we usually do seeing Greg off to work that night). We had our cousins over for an unofficial celebration and enjoyed some of Jesus's leftover birthday cake from Christmas.
Landon has developed a little "obsession" with Start Wars. He knows the story (yes, all 6 movies) inside and out. This left little to be decided upon when trying to figure out a birthday theme.... STAR WARS!
We invited our family over to celebrate, and we all enjoyed a little galactic fun! Thanks to Pinterest, I found a ton of easy, home made ideas that turned our ordinary menu into something a little more theme friendly!
Help free Han Solo from the Carbonite!
R2 D2 and Lightsaber cakes!
Aunt Sue so kindly shared her birthday celebration with her nephew!
Nana made Landon a Goliath/Gladiator belt to holster his "Sword of the Spirit!"
Happy 4th Birthday, Landon! We love you!
