Alex's Family Party

We decided to have a family party for Alex before Ted has to leave for Utah. So tonight we had the party. Alex asked for fish sticks, popcorn shrimp, rice and salad for dinner. He asked Sydney to come over for dinner, dessert and presents. And the rest of her family, Jean, Ray and Haley to come over after dinner for dessert and presents.
Alex said dinner was great and just what he wanted. After dinner he went with Brad to go and get the ice cream I forgot :) Oops! Alex was so sweet at the store he asked Brad if he could buy me some flowers and Sydney a flower. So he went and smelled about 5 different rose bouquets until he found one that smelled great and got it for me. Then he picked out a single red rose for Sydney. He brought them home for us, he is so awesome!!
When they got back Alex open his presents; he got some great presents! Sierra gave him a new bike helmet and kick stand. Ted gave him Ben 10 action figures. Brad and I gave him a huge Optomus Prime transformer and the Ben 10 game he asked for. Sydney spoiled him rotten, I think, she gave him a bumble bee transformer poster, werewolf gloves, skull gloves, a knight costume and $5 (because he is 5). He loved all of his gifts!
After dinner we decorated sugar cookies (that I baked the night before in a 90 degree kitchen, I must really love him!) and had ice cream.

Alex said that it was an awesome family party!!!
