Carson's 4th Birthday

Our little Carson is 4!

 For the last several years Carson has been obsessed with trains and he still is but now he loves Star Wars. Specifically Darth Vader- Should I worry that his favorite character is the bad guy? Anyway, it's sad to see a phase pass but Cohen and Carson are so cute playing together! Above is the Darth Vader mask Cohen got him for his birthday. The best part was that he walked through Target wearing it- so funny!

 Also, Carson got to have his preschool graduation on the same day as his birthday. Even though he still has one more year of preschool left. All the kids sang songs and acted out the little Gingerbread Boy play. Carson didn't sing one word and covered his face during the play- haha (Miss Susie let us know that he really sings all the songs every time...... good to know). He has such a shy, funny personality. Maybe he will sing next year!

 Mr. Shy covering his eyes!

 This is his best little friend Sarah- we get to carpool with her a lot this past year and we love her talkative, outgoing personality. She has been really good for Carson socially!

 Afterwards Carson chose to go to Olive Garden for his birthday lunch- He cannot be serious in a picture for anything!

 Here is his sweet teacher Miss Susie- we love her!

 Okay so don't laugh, but as many of you know my mom is the cake decorator in our family but since she wasn't here I had to attempt..... I know right? So anyway this is the Death Star- at least the boys loved it, that's all that matters.

 We were so lucky to have Carson's cousin Jackman and Uncle Rob come for the weekend. Jackman and Carson have the same birthday so when they arrived we met for dinner at Texas Roadhouse- they loved sitting on the saddling and having all the waiters sing a very loud rendition of happy birthday!

 Aren't the birthday boys so cute!

 Here they are blowing out their candles- we may or may not have had to relight them like 6 times to get a picture with them both blowing out candle!

 The weekend was spent going to the splash pad, eating glaciers at Larsen's, playing outside and building lots of Legos with daddy and Uncle Rob. The boys also got to go off roading in the Jeep out to the dinosaur tracks- they had a great weekend! 

It was really cute to hear them all wake up together and laughing with each other- Carson would say Jackman come make us laugh.... yeah it took forever for them to go to bed every night because they were telling jokes and stories- they loved having sleep overs with their cousin!

Also Carson got to fly a kite for the first time- thanks Uncle Rob and Aunt Holly for the Kite- of course it's a Yoda kite- everything Star Wars!
