Liam at age 5

Liam is 5!  We celebrated 3 times!  First, we had my mom over for dinner (mission BBQ!) and ice cream cake to celebrate both of their birthdays.  Then, we took the kids on a surprise trip to Great Wolf Lodge.  We had SO much fun!  When we got home, we had a joint birthday party with two of Liam's friends at Blandair park... the kids all ran around with squirt bottles, played on the playground, played with stomp rockets and ate Stormtrooper cupcakes.  It was a fun week!
