Samuel turned 4 years old! He wanted his birthday theme to be his favorite song; The Dinosaur Swing, and his favorite show; The Dinosaur Train. Festivities began with decorating the kitchen nook to look a little like the Dinosaur Train (it's a PBS preschool TV show). The balloons are suppose to be dinos looking out the windows. I repeated the dinosaur song on the CD player all day. I think I have the rap memorized now, "Raptile, what is is to me. I've had enough, they're history!" After school I took the boys and a friend to ride an antique carrousel and a train that drives around the mall. It was Awana night, so Samuel brought dino cupcakes to share with his Cubbie friends. Later we had a volcano cake- complete with dry ice "smoke" and a dinosaur train. Samuel requested a "giant meatball" with Penne and Alfredo for birthday dinner, so Thursday I cooked a 21/2 pounder to fit the bill. Saturday we ate dinner at Red Robin (love that place- kids always eat free) and Samuel got the whole birthday treatment. Birthday activities continued on Sunday. We headed to Champion park where the boys dug up dino bones and created a river system in the giant sand pit..
