Ethan is now officially 7.
Last year for his party we had a BIG one, so this year I wanted to have a family party. This means something different to my husband. He thinks...hmmm...extended family and cousins and the whole shabang. I meant just US. But as we talked about it more, I realized that when we had a family party growing up, that there were a lot of siblings around so it SEEMED like a big party. I had never thought about that. So, in my efforts to try and throw together some sort of surprise party, I fell flat on my face. It was sad! I guess most people don't go by the seat of their pants very well. BUT...he did get some new Legos and a sweet hoodie from Grandma Massey. It was not the worst day of his life let me tell you. But, next year look for an invitation to the biggest party this side of O-Town (which I will prepare for months in advance)!

To next year (as I raise a glass of apple juice).
OHhhh, and we din't even get our present out in time. Geezzzz... Hopefully he likes what we got him, that would be even worse. Okay, it's only $10. Don't tell him though, I want it to be a suprise. I know how much he loved $$$$$$$
I'm sure he loved his day even without all the hooplah! (at least I hope he did for your sake! ;) )
I can't believe he's 7 - he's such a doll!
