Coleman's Birthday Party

Coleman will turn 6 on April 23. It's hard to believe it's been 6 years already. This year he wanted a Lightning McQueen cake so we decided to go with that 'theme' and have a little party with family and church friends at the Race Track! We had originally planned for his party to be the weekend of the 21st, but I wasn't sure if I'd be able to keep this baby in that long.

So we moved it up to this past weekend. He had a great time and it was special to have family and friends there to celebrate with us. And boy howdy, I am relieved to have this BIG shindig behind us as we await the birth of this baby!

Here are some pics from the day:

The cake! Granny made the cake for me this year since I am supposed to stay off my feet! Thanks Granny! It was beautiful AND delicious!

Opening presents ...

Coleman and Emmie sharing a hug! (Yes, of course they always act that way! They are a reflection of their Mother!)

Daddy and Coleman in the racing car. (We won't mention the fact that PawPaw, Brian's Dad, was the one to get a yellow caution flag!) Mommy couldn't ride this year because as Coleman said "You're too big - you won't fit!" (Thanks Coleman!)

For those of you who read Mercy Days, that's Kim over there hoggin down on some good pizza, right Kim?
