At his party, we did a couple of dinosaur crafts, played pin the horn on the triceratops, had a relay race with big cardboard dino feet, dug for dinos in a bucket of sand (yes, in the house), ate cake and ice cream, and opened gifts. It was a whirlwind of energy and fun, and I think all the kids had a blast!
We celebrated Will's birthday as a family the next day, his actual birthday. Will opened his gifts from us, and then we took him to dinner at Red Lobster. It's his favorite restaurant because he likes to look at the lobsters in the tank by the front door. Will got a dessert with a candle in it, and some of the waiters sang happy birthday to him. He loved having dessert--a rare treat at a restaurant! He was also very intrigued by a man at the next table with some, um, interesting facial piercings. We had to have a little manners lesson about not continuously pointing at someone who might make different piercing choices than we do. :)
Here's the photos from the big birthday bash . . .
