Gavin McQueen's Fifth Birthday

Gavin celebrated his 5th birthday on October 24th. In fact, he was so special this year he got to have three birthday parties! We had a family birthday for him on his real birthday. Gavin had wanted to go out to eat and had chosen to go to Chili's. The morning of his birthday he changed his mind to Applebee's and by the time we actually went out to eat, he had decided on McDonald's. I was a little disappointed because I was truly looking forward to Chili's, but I guess he knew what he wanted. Because it was his birthday, he was spoiled and actually got a Happy Meal. He was so excited and thankful! They must have known it was his birthday because they put a RACE CAR in his Happy Meal!
The next day we had the family party. Several family members had called Gavin on his real birthday and he informed them that it was not his birthday today, and that mommy had changed it! Gavin assumed that his real birthday was the day he got his birthday cake. All the family came over and brought wonderful gifts. Gavin has been entertained for the past two weeks with all of his new toys and cooking supplies. f

On Sunday we had a party for all of the October birthdays at Grandma and Grandpa Briner's house. Along with birthdays came pumpkin picking, an annual event. All of the grandkids picked out a pumpkin from the garden and helped load it into the red wagon. They had so much fun and we got some great pictures.
