Today has been a busy one! Anthony took the day off which was such a nice surprise for the kids and I. We started the day off wishing Bryce a very happy 7th birthday! He had school today so we got him in the car and off he went. Next we got loaded up on our bikes and biked to CeCe's school for the big St. Patrick's day parade.
It was a great parade and she had a blast riding on the float with her friends and teachers.
The Grand Marshall from the huge parade tomorrow was there and a bag pipe group! It was great!
They rode around the back of Bryce's school and they let all the Elementary kids out to watch the parade and CeCe was so excited to tell us that she had seen her brother!
After the parade we came home for about 20 minutes and then went up to Bryce's school to eat lunch with the birthday boy. Went to Publix, came home and made brownies (Bryce's birthday request), finished sewing his blanket, hurried back up to May Howard to take the class Friday snack for the birthday boy (he requested chips again this year!) helped Mrs. Aiken with her folders, had about 20 minutes to kill so picked up some books at the library, picked up Bryce and Nick from school, came home and Bryce couldn't wait to open his presents from us. So we let him. In my mind we would come home from dinner, eat brownies and sing happy birthday and then open presents. But on this beautiful day how could I say no to opening them right after school?
He loved all of his presents. All were sports related of course! This is the blanket I made for him. I just started sewing in January so this was a big project for me. It's far from perfect but the look on his face made it all worthwhile. He loves it!!
We let him pick the restaurant for tonight and told him he could invite a friend to come with us. We are on our way to pick Nick up now and drop off some of our parade items for tomorrow with the Tootle's. Nick's dad Lynn is getting to the square at 5:30am to get a spot!
