So Saturday was Laira's 6th's Birthday. We had quite the day planned, but as luck would have it, several of us weren't feeling very well. We HAD planned to go up to Thanksgiving Point to go through the corn maze, but we have postponed it. We DID go shopping and have Birthday cake. While shopping Denae happened to find something she wanted to buy for Xander for Christmas, (since it's NOT his birthday) but Bailey spilled the beans and Xander wanted his gift NOW! There was no consoling him! So Ashley, at Matt's suggestion, wrapped up one of Xander's old Lightning McQueen cars, "Chow" as Xander calls them, and then gave it to him. We figured this would work wonderfully or be a total dud....but we didn't know which it would be. You can see from the picture it worked!!! 
He kept saying "My NEW Chow, my NEW Chow!....I LOVE IT!" We were all laughing so hard....unfortunately for him, this is one of those stories he will probably NEVER live down. Ashley mentioned later that she's not buying him Christmas this year...she's just going to wrap up his old stuff. Hummmm, it just might work.

With all of the toys we have at our house I've thought that so many times.......let's just wrap up a bunch of toys that we already have and I doubt the little ones will notice.
