It was a little early but sometimes birthdays need to be spread over a few days or even a week. Hayden's birthday is in a few days but he wanted a family time and this weekend was the time Claude and I could connect with the Marx family. So, after we finished with a baptism at Church this morning, we pointed that red Buick west in search of grandmonsters.
Hayden was okay with waiting until time for presents. But Miss Bailey really wanted her brother to open one present before we had lunch. She asked Andie and Andie said it was okay, if Claude and I were okay with that. We both said it would be fine.
Hayden picked a small gift out of the bag and opened it first. It was a small Lego set from the Ninjago series. Hayden had given me a very long list of possibilities and we seemed to have gotten it right. He immediately set to putting it together. Bailey and I played some board games while he did that.
We ate a wonderful fish taco lunch prepared by Andie. Then Bailey was sure Hayden needed to pick another gift and open it. We agreed so he took the large gift out of the bag and opened it. It was a Lego Chima series set which Hayden really, really wanted. He was ecstatic. Right to work he went putting it together. This allowed the adults some time to visit while he worked and Bailey played on my Kindle and then Claude's Kindle.
After Hayden finished that Lego there was one other small item in the bag. He opened it and found his Girl Scout cookies.
Here are some pictures of Hayden putting his Lego sets together and Bailey playing.
Happy Birthday to Hayden. Cannot believe this has gone by so fast.
