Campbell's 6th Birthday

Campbell's birthday happens to fall on "Fall Break" here in Kentucky so we were able to party all day with Campbell. Waffles in the morning and Campbell's choice for lunch? McDonald's of course! The last few months I have been training to run a half-marathon with 5 other ladies from my ward and we all decided that we should have a little BBQ get together. But it just so happened to fall on Campbell's birthday so we ended up celebrating the night before. 6 years old!

We made the mistake of letting the boys watch the new Wolverine movie that's out now. So of course that's what Campbell wanted for his birthday cake. He actually asked us for a white tank top for his birthday (because that's what Logan, aka Wolverine, wears in the movie) but luckily we talked him into an action figure instead. Andersen said he never thought the day would come that his son would ask him for a 'wife-beater' while we lived in Kentucky! By the way, he has taken up weight lifting so he can "get big muscles."
I had to post this picture because I caught Porter mesmerized by the match he just used to light the candles. Nothing better than a birthday and playing with fire!
By the end of the night Campbell made out with a newly re-sewn Wolverine costume, a new Spiderman costume, and a Batman costume. My parents sent the Batman costume and I think they totally out-did themselves with this one.
MY favorite part of the costume? This warning label on the inside of the wing pack.
We'll see about that! Here is a video of Campbell demonstrating the costume features.
