Lincon turned 6 on March 5th.

We went to church.

Then opened and played with gifts, especially the car wash toy.

He also liked 'Officer Kitty' which he stuffed at Build-a-Bear the week before.

Next was cake and ice cream with grandpa and grandma.

And Grandpa and Lincoln worked on the snap circuit kit together.

The next day, Lincoln chose to have his family birthday at Classic Fun Center, same as Makayla.

So we bounced.

And shot foam balls, skated, and scootered.

Then had pizza for dinner.

We are so glad you are part of our family, Lincoln!

We love you! Happy 6th Birthday!
