We got to celebrate our sweet Merrick turning 6 today! He is just so sweet and kind to everyone and loves doing things for his friends. We did a little celebrating on his actual birthday but letting him pick dinner and then going to Dairy Queen with our neighbors.
Later in the week, we went all out with a Pokemon party at the park. We weren't sure if we were going to be able to do it since it was raining on and off all day, but it worked out great. We had hot dogs for everyone, then they played and every one got a little Pokeball and ears to wear of a character. Thanks to our amazing friends, we had some amazing cake to go with it all.
Fun story about the picture above. The fire station is right by the park and they saw we were out there needing to use the ramada, but it had water all over. They were nice enough to come out with a big squeegee and cleaned it off for us. Later they came and brought out a present for Merrick and glow sticks for the rest of the kids. They boys loved getting to be with the real firemen and it was so sweet of them. Later, they ended up saving the party because we forgot a lighter for the candle and sure enough, one of them had a lighter for us.
This is the last party with Uncle Brent until he goes on his mission.
Merrick loved his party and it was a great success! Happy 6th birthday Merrick!
