Happy Birthday Luke

Happy Birthday Luke!  Mr. 6 years old on Thursday had a nice day.  His first gift came from our under-the-weather neighbors: a cool new bag.  He was super excited considering he had been carrying around his sister's Rapunzel "satchel" bag for weeks now.  Thanks Aunt Emily.
 
Don't breathe or you might get sick (at the neighbor's door for a happy birthday song).
The cake (Luke's request- a construction cake):


The kids were excited to have some surprise visitors over- cousins!  We didn't have to sing Happy Birthday by ourselves after all. 
Dad gave Luke a new chess set, the kind the school kids use in a little Cordula case with a roll-up board and big pieces (how nice and nerdy eh?)
 Thanks for the cool model airplane grandma and grandpa.
A scooter so he does not need to use Allie's pink version anymore.
An after church game with his sister- she was whipping him so Dad had to help out.  Allie almost took the boys out in the second round.

Nice, Colby likes Chess too. I've been wanting to get him a new set, but the big cool ones sure are expensive.

The one Jason ordered online wasn't very expensive. We bought one at Target once and the pieces were so light, cheap and plastic that they got lost quickly or stepped on and break etc.

Ah, now I know where Eli got the word satchel. He justs uses a purse. Can't believe Luke is already six!!

No Peggy it is just the way the photo looks. But you are right... it looks short!
