Celebrating RF's Sixth Birthday!

The celebration lasted five days, folks.

From Wednesday (his birthday) - Sunday we had a ton of fun celebrating our six year old boy!

 Birthday morning smiles!

 We've moved on to the second hand - he's six! 

 Cinnamon rolls for the birthday boy! 

 Car rider line smiles with my boy...

 SIX!
 Nana and Babu were in town for the day because Nana went with Ellis on a field trip to the pumpkin patch! 

 Silly boy having fun at Washington Farms! 

 After school we all headed to Cracker Barrel (RF's choice - of course!) to have dinner in celebration of our boy!

 Really pretty fall decor at Cracker Barrel, so we snapped a quick photo...

Ellis LOVES his Babu! 

Home for some cake to celebrate our birthday boy! 

Brothers - with Ellis having a mouthful of cake! 

An X-wing fighter for his birthday! 

When Meme's on the way, you wait for her at the top of the driveway. 

A little pumpkin craft at our monthly mom's group meeting at church... 

Sweet brothers! 

Such a helpful big brother...

He's ready to celebrate! 

Mantle decor...

RA's original Indiana Jones VHS tapes are part of our decor...

They are ready to party! 

Good eats...

When you ask for an Indiana Jones cake, mama does her best to deliver. 

Big smiles from the birthday boy! 

If he's happy, I'm happy. 

So many great gifts from family and friends...

Birthday cake, the GA game, and begging beagles...

Indiana ate too much cake...

Sunday morning snuggles...

Ready to hike Stone Mountain! 

Strong boys ready for a good hike! 

Wandering...

Gorgeous views as we hiked up...

Such a nice view...

They wouldn't take it slow...they wanted to run and jump and explore the whole way up! 

He's such a cutie...

So is he! 

View of ATL from about 3/4 of the way up the mountain...

Hanging on carefully as we take on the last few steep climbs...

Piggyback rides as we rest for a few minutes during our climb...

He's such a cool kid...

We made it to the top!
What a view...

Taking a look at the view...

Ellis just stood and stared. He thought it was really cool. 

RF was very interested the entire way up at all of the moss, so we took a few minutes to read about the mosses at the top of the mountain...

Just over an hour to get up the mountain and about half that time to get back down. RF jumped his way back down the mountain...

After eating lunch and getting a few things done at home, we headed out to the fall festival at church and other than about 10 minutes of time, both boys spent the entire two hours on the bouncy house...

Ellis took some time to knock down some cans...

And a little Trunk or Treating...

Our trunk for Trunk or Treat...

Chowing down on a hot dog - gotta have energy for the bouncy house! 

What a great few days of celebrating and enjoying the beautiful fall weather! Now we wrap up the month of October and head into November and December with lots of holiday excitement! :-)
