Jaxon is 6!!

What feels like awhile ago (since I have neglected to post anything on this blog for a very LONG time), Jaxon turned 6. There was a lot of snow this past winter and the day of his birthday party showed us no mercy. He decided on a roller skating party and the morning of the party the snow started. And the wind was blowing hard. And we drove 20 minutes to his party in a mini-blizzard. The whole drive there I was praying that his friends would dare to get out in the awful storm (I'm such a terrible person) because I couldn't stand the thought of his heart breaking if no one showed up for his big day. Turns out, everyone who RSVP'd made it! So grateful for friends who understood how important his day was. It was such a great party!

Dakota was hugging the walls. She insisted on wearing
Bubby's skates that are 2 sizes too big for her!

Hockey friend, Allie, stopping for a picture.

Another friend, Ali, taking a break to smile.

I made Jax this hockey rink cake with figurines I had ordered from Amazon,
complete with four (over-sized) hockey pucks made from brownies.

Friend, Nora. 

It would appear that only girls came to his party, but I think I just
couldn't catch the boys for a picture!

Back home on his actual birthday.
Super excited about the Legos from Grandma and
Grandpa Hager! 

Protective Gear from Aunt Ninny, Cousin Page and
Uncle Austin, to go with his new roller blades Memaw and
Papa Schu got him!

This kid can't get enough Legos!

Chocolate and Target money from Aunt Nat,
Uncle Jeremy and the girls!

Royals!! From Aunt Jamie, Uncle Nick and
the boys.

We celebrated his birthday again the next weekend with
Ouma and Oupa. A hockey puck cake this time!
