Happy Birthday Dakota!!!!

 Dakota turned 5 today!! The day started out by celebrating at school. He got to take treats to the class and they sang happy birthday to him, also his teacher made him this cute birthday hat.
He couldn't wait to open his present from Mike and I,  he had asked about it a million times and as soon as he got off the bus from school he just HAD to open it. We got him two John Deere diesels that were hauling tractors and a combine.He LoVeD them.

He wanted a John Deere birthday party this year.

We ate tractor tires (chocolate covered donuts)

Haystacks (Butterscotch and peanut butter treats)

Mudd and Dirt (chocolate pudding and crushed Oreos)

And John Deere cake push ups

We made them green and yellow like John Deere

And of course we ate on John Deere plates

All the kids enjoyed their treats


Even Maddy loved hers!

After treats he opened his presents and we finished the night by going down stairs and watching his new tractor movie he got for his birthday. I think he had a really great day! I love having Dakota in our family I sat down with him this afternoon and told the story about when he was born, and I showed him his baby pictures. I told him how excited I was to have him and that I love having him in our family. There is truly no greater joy than being a mother!
