Noah Turns 5!

We are now the parents of a handsome, energetic, thoughtful, 5 year old little boy!  Crazy how time flies when you are busy raising a family!  We have been busy having fun celebrating this exciting milestone with friends and family.  Here is a recap in photos of the festivities. 

Last week Monday we invited a few friends over to play and have cupcakes.

Saturday, April 9th ..... Noah is officially 5 years old (and super excited about it!)

His passion these days is animals.... especially the wild cats... think leopard, tiger, cheetah etc.

The birthday boy wasn't into his new scooter.... but his little brother was super excited!

We surprised Noah with a trip to the Woodland Park Zoo for his birthday!  It was a bit chilly in the morning, but overall we had a great day together as a family!

I just love Treston's face in this picture... checking out the penguins with his brother.

It's family party time!

The AMAZING number 5 leopard print cake made by Becca Manderson!  

Noah was super excited!

Love my little boy!

Thanks Uncle Scott and Auntie Lindsay for the whoopie cushion... there will be paybacks some day!

The youngest little guest at the party.... Ryker!

Happy 5th birthday Noah James!  

You are growing up SO fast... getting taller, learning many new things and getting SO excited for kindergarten.  Some of your favorite things right now are wild cats, numbers, legos and race cars.  We love your passion for learning, especially facts about animals.  You bring such joy, laughter and love to our family!   We love you little man!
