He just LOVES them! And he also loves Star Wars.
On his birthday, we went to the store to get some balloons.
Eli wanted some white ones so that his daddy would make Star Wars storm troopers.
Emeri helped.
While we were at the store, we had purchased a couple of pumpkins.
(The kids have several mice kept in the grandparents' basement.)
Have you heard the Pumpkin Prayer?
I found it on Pinterest.
cut open the top:
Lord, open my mind and fill me with Your wisdom
scoop out the inside:
Lord, take out all my sin and fill me with Your love
carve the eyes:
Lord, open my eyes to see Your glory
carve the nose:
Lord, let my life be a sweet aroma to You
carve the mouth:
Lord, help me to speak Your words
of truth and love
place candle inside:
Lord, fill me with Your light to shine
for all to see.
Eli, since he was the birthday boy, chose the restaurant.
He wanted to go to Tacos4Life, one of my favorites too!
After our meal, we went home to open presents!
A fun card that made sounds of swords flashing!
I printed off this charaacter and put him on the package (instead of a girly bow)
Like I said, he likes Star Wars!
A gift for both kids (Emeri's birthday is 2 days later).
They got the "Gilligan's Island" series from a sweet, elderly friend.
After gifts were opened at home, we went next door to Grami and Bebop's home for a treasure hunt!
After following cleverly placed clues all around the house, Elijah found his "treasure"!
Allen loves to read to the children. They picked out "Oliver Twist" and Al read that over the weekend.
"Can you read it to me in my room so I can work on my Lego set?"
Lego-boy finished this in one day!
