Turning 5, Celebrate Birthday at School

Thursday.

William’s Birthday is Nov 24 but school is closed the whole week (11/16 -11/23) so Ms. Newman decided to celebrate his birthday few days earlier.  I asked if I could bring a cake but she said she was gonna bring cup cakes so I can bring cookies and juice.

So after work I went to 85 Bakery to buy 3 little fruit tarts for the teachers as a appreciation token in the spirit of Thanksgiving.  Then stopped by Walmart to get 1 cookie box, 1 pop corn box and 1 pack of juice.  I was gonna go to Costco but it was too late and dark; and Costco is far.

Picked him up at school, he seemed to be happy wearing a Birthday hat.

Happy Birthday my precious boy!

 

I had William trace out the card, and color the red heart.

Daddy’s Birthday

May 5th, it’s Tim’s birthday; and in May we have aunt Eliza and cousin Tracy’s birthday also so we threw a little party for everyone at our house on Sunday May 6th.  As usual, William loves to sing Happy Birthday song and blows the candle.

Aunt Eliza and cousin Tracy also were born in May. Tracy is 13 years old and William is 4 years old.

From Porto’s Bakery, it’s delicious but the store was crowded, took too much time just to get the cake and some pastries.

Happy 4th Birthday, William!

Thursday Nov 23, Thanksgiving day at noon.

William’s birthday is Nov 24 so we threw him a little party on Thanksgiving day at our home; with aunt Julie and uncle Than out of town, and relatives from Tim’s side were not available so it’s just my family.  I set up a theme of Cars for him and rented a bounce house set up in the back yard.  I booked for a Train bounce house but it’s too high (13x13x17) that touched the electricity cable so the delivery man hesitated to continue.  Turned out he had a smaller castle (10×10) in his truck so we used that.  I had to pay extra $10 for removal fee ( total cost of $73.00).

William only played in the bounce house for few minutes; not sure why he didn’t like it.  Last time when we were at the park, he saw a bounce house and wanted to get in the bounce house so badly.   That’s why I decided to rent him a bounce house for his birthday.

Menu for this special day is Hot Pot and Korean BBQ.  For William, it’s just simply the Mac & Cheese.   I got him a birthday care from tTou le Jours bakery shop.  ($32.00).  Since William likes chocolate so I got him a chocolate cake with cars for decoration, which is exactly our party theme.

The best part is that he loved that everyone singing Happy Birthday song to him, we sang 3 times because he looked so happy whenever we sing the song.  He knows how to blow candles now.
