Colson has been excited about his birthday for a long time. He keeps saying he's going to be 6, however. (Which is how old Cannon is.)
For Colson's birthday this year we headed down to Ocean Shores. We haven't been camping since last October, so we were all ready to head out for a nice weekend. And this was an especially important and exciting weekend since it would be in honor of Colson!
We left early Friday and were able to enjoy the sun and warm weather on the beach. The boys ran and played and chased each other. Cannon got soaking wet feet and Colson was covered in sand. It was perfect!
Colson's birthday was Saturday and we started the celebration off by going out to breakfast. The boys both had a huge pancake, bacon and eggs. They also picked out a doughnut for later.
Colson opened the first of his presents when we got back from breakfast, the ones from Auntie Karin. We Face Timed with her so she could watch him open the gifts. He was so nice trying to take off the wrapping paper. And his facial expressions were hilarious when he saw what was in each package.
Doughnuts were next...with candles for Colson.
After some play time, some rest time, some more play time we headed to town. We let the boys look all over the toy store and dragged them through another store with no toys. They played hide and seek instead.
We we made it back home, Colson opened a few more gifts from us.
Later on, all went out and had pizza for dinner and when we got back, Colson had the piece of cake he picked out. This time we Face Timed with Grandma and Grandpa Anderson. They got to sing and watch Colson blow out the candles.
The smile on Colson's face the entire weekend was priceless. Love that kid!
It was a fun, family trip away. We loved being together. We especially enjoyed celebrating Colson's 3rd birthday!
Enjoying every moment!
