Well it happened! Philip turned 4...he's 4 years, or 48 months, or 1460 days old!! Not going into the hours or minutes thing...He had a great day! Grandma Cathy was here, Aunt Mia and Uncle Patrick came as well to celebrate with us! His birthday started on the Thursday when he had is 'in class' party with his school. We made (British) flapjacks and sliced apples at his request. He got a sticker, crown, fun star sunglasses and a special present from his teachers. He even managed a green face the whole day!
The day of his birthday started with breakfast, and a trip to the grocery store. Needless to say it was a stressful day. (Mom tip-No more parties on the actual birthday, don't really get to enjoy the day with the birthday boy!) Thank goodness I had enough sense to have an evening party! Aunt Mia designed the cake and I made the frosting, we decorated it! The Pirate theme was lots of fun! We made pirate lollipops with skeleton and jolly rogers on them. The floating boat and gold coin cupcakes were yummy!
The menu for dinner was:
~Beef and tomato kebabs~pirate's teeth (corn)~tri colored seaweed (pasta)~Treasure Chest fruit salad~gold fish crackers~and not to forget CHEESE CURLS (Veggietale thing)~Lime Grog Punch- to ward off the survy!
We played a toss game with a pirate hamper that Grandma bought Philip. Watched (or had in the background) Jonah (With the Pirates Who Don't Do Anything) Ate, drank and were all around merry! He got a lot of great treasure and was more than happy in true Pirate fashion to be greedy!
Over all it was a great day and he hopefully will remember it as a great day!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY PHILIP!
