Nathan's 4th Birthday - March 24th

We started going to a new church on Nathan's birthday.  This church starts at 9:30, so we had some time in the morning to start his birthday celebration.  Good thing we did, since we  had no idea what was coming . . .

He opened his presents and was excited to get quite a bit of Gamecock stuff!

He got to have his birthday muffin.

Then we went to church, by the time we got home he looked like this:

Poor guy - not the way you want to spend your birthday.

Jeff took him to the ER due to a high fever.  He had an ear infection.  Thankful the medicine started working pretty quickly.  By the next day he was feeling much better.

For his birthday party we invited a few of his friends and their family to go to the children's museum.  It was so much fun!!!

We hired a van to take us all there.  Yes, the van is driving down the road with the boys checking out the route.  Don't need car seats or seat belts for this ride! :)

Watch out Museum, here come the crazy gringos!

We all went back to our house for some yummy Papa John's pizza and cupcakes!

It was a fun birthday and so grateful for wonderful friends to be able to celebrate with.
