Lucas is 4!!

Lucas had a great birthday! On Saturday he had his Space Birthday party. As you can tell from our previous post, Lucas was very into preparing for the party. A few minutes before everyone was supposed to arrive, Andy took Lucas for a drive and came back after all the guests came. So we were able to yell, "Surprise!" when Lucas came into the house. We had a great meal and then I'm not sure who liked the space shuttle cake more, Lucas or Adam. We served the cake with Lucas's favorite ice cream, mint chocolate chip. Lucas opened some wonderful presents and was very thankful for them all. He had a great party!








On Monday, Lucas's actual birthday, Andy and I took him out for a special dinner. We did a hibachi meal and even though Lucas was nervous about the fire, he had a great time! He started off my making a wish in the coy pond. Then the staff came him some fish food to throw in, which thrilled him. He ordered his drink and meal all by himself. He ate the majority of his meal with some spring loaded chopsticks and refused to use his fork. He really enjoyed watching the chef cook and could barely stay in his seat. The waiter brought him an ice cream sundae with a candle in his for dessert and everyone sang Happy Birthday! Lucas said, "This restaurant has everything we need guys, a fish pond, dinner, and dessert! It's great!"
