Sander's 4th Birthday

Sander wanted a dinosaur theme for his birthday so we had the party at the Houston Museum of Science with a private tour of the dinosaur exhibit followed by some animal petting (all reptiles of course!). Here are a few pictures....

Sander doens't like when people sing happy birthday - to him - or anyone. So, he's covering his hears while we sing.

This is Sander at school the day before his birthday celebrating with dinosaur decorated cupcakes.

Lovin' the cake

We made two cakes. This is Matt's creation - "The Dino Fight" with a tar pit, blood and all!

This was a combined effort. It's made of 8 homemade cakes, rice krispy treats for the head, feet and tail and lots of frosting! We weren't sure if how edible or cuttable it would be so Matt made the 2nd cake. It ended up fine for the party!

Grandma and Grandpa came to visit for Sander's birthday. Here they are before his party. He chose to wear his dinosaur costume there :)
