Birthday List

Monday we blogged about Carys's birthday and how she wanted mocha chocolate chip banana muffins for breakfast.

She got those.

We also said she would let us know what the rest of her day would look like after we picked her up from school.  Birthday person gets to pick family activities for the day.

We were met with this list:
Carys takes her birthday choices seriously.

We started working through them.

She, obviously, did the first one on her own.  She went to school.

The second one says "show locker."  That means to show it to Benay.  We had to get to school early so that Benay could look at Carys's first ever school locker.

Eat at Paulinho's was number three.  This is probably our most favorite place to eat.  The food is incredible but we also love the owners.  They are some of our most favorite people.  Here is Paulinho and his wife Karen with Carys.  They even gave Carys a birthday present.

Play at Playland is number four.  This is a game room at a mall.  We definitely took care of number four!

Get toy with tickets at Playland is number five.  She took care of that one as well with help from her brothers and sister.

One toy she bought was hair spray paint.  After we got home it took about 5 seconds for that to get opened.

Look at toy and bookstores is number six.  We skipped that one.  No good stores like that in the mall we went to.

Go home and have family wrestling time is seven.  That one was skipped as well.  Too much food from Paulinho's.

Open presents is eight.  Of course she did eight.

We even called Bronwyn on Skype and put her on the "toilet of justice" so she could see Carys opening her presents.

Seeing Bronwyn in a computer was pretty cool to Giovanni.

Play twister is nine.  Skipped as well because Benay gave that game away.

Eat cake and watch movie from Blockbuster is number ten.

As always we had Mammy's Chocolate Cake.

Carys chose to rent the movie "RV."  It wasn't that bad.  Pefect goofy level for kids.

We worked our way through the list as best we could.  Carys was happy with our progress.

She had a great day.  Thanks to everyone who sent her a note.  You made her day even more special.
