Five years Old



For Aaron's 5th birthday this year, Katie planned a naturalist themed party for him. In addition to all the animals having really great names, and the ducks being pretty smelly, it seemed that Aaron loved holding the bunny rabbit most of all.


We also had a couple of naturalist birthday parties here when our kids were young, and what I remember most, is doing constant head counts on cockroaches running around a sheet on the living room floor, and wearing a large snake around my neck, which was pretty bold now that I think about it. The naturalist told me that these particular cockroaches wouldn't thrive in Minnesota weather, but I wasn't taking any chances on one escaping...

One duck was named Fiona 

Daniel was quite interested in the ducks.

There was pizza from Pizza Luce, and a strawberry cake decorated with hedgehogs plus a sparkler candle on top. There was also veggies, chips, cookies, and a chocolate cake, but the strawberry cake was especially rich and decadent.








Gifts from cousin Stellan




Next year, Aaron will be starting Kindergarten, which is a hard thing to believe.
