Gages Birthday

Gage turned 7 on Wednesday! So we had a little family + me celebration. Early on wed we got up and headed into town to find some donuts! Which with all the pastry shops they have around here they dont really have donuts. Surprisingly the only place we could find them was McDonald's and they were actually really good. I didnt even know McDonald's sold them.. maybe they dont at home.
Anyway for lunch Gage wanted grilled cheese and tomato soup. We had just been to the grocery store gotten home and realized we forgot the soup. So I volunteered to go get some. Ami asked if I wanted to drive ha I laughed and put my walking shoes on. I am still not brave enough to try that one even though the store is around the corner. So when I came back with the soup she asked me to start it while she went to pick up one of her boys for preschool. Studying the package in German I had to go to the computer and find the conversion from deciliters into cups or something I could understand. Thankfully the soup came out all right. The rest of the day we spent building all the Lego sets Gage got for his birthday. We had dinner with Miss Melanie and some cake, it was a nice little celebration.
And then on Thursday Gage got to have his friend party. The day started out by me walking into town for cupcake mix. Ami wanted chocolate and vanilla. So of course I had to ask for help. The picture on the box the lady pointed out looked like a slice of chocolate bread and then did not have vanilla.
On the way home I got to see them putting up Christmas light! Since there is no thanksgiving here they have already started putting up decorations. So when I got home Ami made the cupcakes which turned out great. I frosted them and we all gathered in the car for Kloton. Kloton was where the Browns had been last year and they had friends there that were going to meet us at trampalino! It was about an hour away but so fun. They had everything a kid could want to do.. the place was crazy. All the adults sat and chatted. I got to follow Griffin around and we had a blast! He made me go down all the slides and through all the tunnels haha. I loved it.
