Alex 's party

   Alex's birthday party was another fun family moment. It is always a nice excuse to get the extended family together and catch up.  Sadly none of my family could make it since they live far away, but we had tons of Matt's family there.  Of course we always have tons of food.  This time we decided to have chicken kabobs to do something different.  They were yummy.  We did a dinosaur theme because every little boy loves dinosaurs, even little girls.  All the paper dinosaurs I made for the party Emme insisted she needed to keep them.   Alex got lots of cute clothes, trucks, and toys for his birthday.  I am not sure who was more excited his sisters or him.  We discovered my kids don't really care for smash cakes.  The one time we encourage them to get messy they refuse.  Livi wanted a fork last year.  Alex didn't know what to make of it so we cut it open.  He ate a little before seeing Emme's cupcake on the table so he stole that and ate it.  Our kids are so funny.  During cake time Emme and Livi entertained us all with a sword fight.  We got Alex a bunch of Mike the Knight stuff for his birthday which included a couple of play swords.  It was so cute watching them put on their show.   Alex had fun being passed around from relative to relative.   It was a nice little party to celebrate our sweet Alexander.
