I did not mind one bit sharing my 4th birthday with the Super Bowl. Grandma D made everyone in our family a Seahawks shirt (yes, homemade)! Amazing!
After church, my sister and I were spoiled getting to share a yummy "12th man" donut!
Before the Big Game, we went to a family fun center right next to Saint Martin's University.
We had a blast on all the slides and obstacle courses!
We watched the Super Bowl in the rec center outside Papa's office. I actually only watched a little of the game because I fell asleep for almost 3 hours. I was exhausted from the full day. But I woke up after the game ready to keep celebrating!
I opened the rest of my gifts before dinner and cake. The Rieke families collaborated on a fun railroad theme. Uncle Moo & Auntie Amy gave me the conductor outfit and Uncle Kevin & Auntie Teddy gave me the huge 132-piece railway set. Thank you!
I've been talking about having a Jungle Book cake for the past year. Grandma D made my wish come true by making and decorating this delicious lemon cake. Thank you!!
I successfully blew out my 4 candles!
Other highlights of the weekend included attending a neat Ethnic Festival at Saint Martin's University on Saturday as well as playing with Grandma's sweet dog Chakota.
