Birthday boy!! 5 years old!

Everett's birthday was awesome. I was worried it wouldn't do five justice but it was super duper great! We went to the beach, enjoyed all his favorite things, spoiled him and had a drive by party complete with a fire truck.

This is the day after, finally getting to presents that I asked people not to buy. I get it, I cannot help myself either! He loved them all!

Everyone knows he loves books and he got some great new reads!


This is a cool edge of the pool water toy from the Fegers






Such a great hat from the Crews - he LOVES it! And needed a new one!





A bag of perfect gifts from Miss Kathy and family and they were so sweet to give Clara a graduation present. Clara was so excited for his birthday, it was so fun and she is the BEST big sissy ever and got some presents too!



Kingston really knows his buddy and all the things he loves! Everything was so personal and sweet!



Mimi, Gpa B and Kathy gave Everett pizza gift cards and Elmo and friends coloring book with cute markers!

S'mores the night before the bday in his new pj's from Aunt Kristin

Birthday morning! Clara busted out her shirt that supports her brother, all ready to go for her little man!






Andre sold a truck to the chief of the fire department downtown st. pete so I thought I'd reach out and ask if they could do a drive by...and he got back to me right away and did!!! He gave us an amazing tour of the biggest station a while back, his wife is a teacher too. Such a nice guy! Everett and Clara loved it!


This isn't him, but his guys were just as nice as he is!

The Cotilla's showed up as Elmos!!! Everett just stared for so long, he didn't know what to think. Lisa had the karaoke machine in the back blasting all his favorite Elmo songs!

The sweetest boy gives the sweetest hugs! 

Crazy kids


Everett LOVED his signs so much!




Mr. Michael and Miss Doe came!!! Everett would move in with them if I let him!



He loved all his cards!

The Elmo crew came in to sing happy birthday! 

Finished the bday off right with a nighttime swim! It was the best day for the best bday boy!


The weather had been saying 80 percent chance rain for a week, and no rain. However, at 6pm sharp when the drive by party started, the storm came through. Thankfully it was a quick one and only about 15 minutes! It was HOT and muggy, but still perfect! Our signs attempted to withstand the rain!

Clara was REALLY good at pin the nose on Elmo!

Everett had his own version.



Whoops!






Everyone needs a tooting hippo!

Miss Kathy is driving, this is Everett's high needs assistance. This is also her daughter Emma who was in my class this year. We got to watch and teach each other's babies, it was perfect and not the year to end early. Everett LOVES Emma and hugs her and won't let go. They brought all his favorites and even had bubbles fill the street!!!!!!!!!


Kristin brought her pogo!!! Look at these skills!

Clara was an awesome runner for passing out "party favor treats" to the kids.


How is my baby FIVE?!?!?!?!



Even Selene made it via facetime!

Staying out of the storm!

Oh, we had a happy meal picnic too. We spent so much time in the sun we decided the shade on the deck would do!

Pizza and Elmo for dinner, nothing better!

Opening his first card and wearing daddy's shirt, his favorite thing to do is get daddy's clothes on while he his at work and make a mess of his things. 

All set for the big day!


Sissy rubbing the bday boys back while I get him breakfast.



Sissy's skirt, he did this himself, he loves to dress up in ANYTHING and EVERYTHING


Bubby got sissy a gift too!



One heck of a bday~ it was perfect! He had cookie cake and blew out his candle the first try, this is a first! Sissy made his wish and won't tell me what she wished for so that it'll come true for him.
