Happy Birthday Ezra!!

Happy Birthday, Ezra!! We had a fun party to celebrate Ezra's 4th birthday. He he is opening a present from Grandma!! What could it be. . . .
Reading a card! Ooooo, Money!
We made creations out of marshmallows and toothpicks. The theme was "Ezra" or "birthday". Dylan wrote Ezra's name and Jarom made an "Ezra" person.


Summer and Ezra made a dune buggy- Ezra likes cars!







Bean Bag Toss










We played "bubble gum, bubble gum in a dish" Everyone sat in a circle and I walked around singing the song. When I landed on dish, that person would roll a dice and get that many pieces of gum. When you got 10 peices you were out. If you rolled a number larger than 10 then you could choose who to help with your exra pieces. At the end, we had a bubble gum chewing contest.





















We also played a game with paper airplanes and a target-- like darts. Rubia also brought a pinata that was Lighting McQueen. The kids all had a great time.
Ezra does not really eat cake, so we usually just eat ice cream for him birthday. I did not take pictures of ice cream cones.
Ezra got a Lego Buzz Lightyear, cinnamon gum, art supplies, bubbles, a animal sticker book, portable easle, moon sand, and lots of love.
Ezra is a very funny kid. He loves to dance and do art. He is helpful when motivated by marshmallows. His favorite phrase at the moment is "what can I have?" Meaning "I'm hungry." If I tell him that he can't do something, he protests, and when I do not back down he says "FINE." He hates getting water in his eyes-- bathtime can be torture. Having balloons fly away into the sky is traumatic for him.
Ezra has an infectious smile with the cutes dimple on the right cheek and big, big eyes. He is so funny when he shows off his muscles until his face turns red. He loves to "write" stories an have us read them, but gets frustrated when we don't read them correctly. He is very good at building ships with Legos. Ezra's favorite color is RED.
We love having our little Doodle McFroodle in our family!!!
