We started with a water gun fight:
Moved on to numerous water balloon games:
Played on the trampoline with the sprinkler under it:
And finally, we broke out the new Slip-n-Slide:
The game soon transformed into Eric throwing them down it:
We then moved inside for a car race:
And lunch:
During lunch the kids had an impromptu burping contest. Thrilling!
We opened presents, and then had cake!
Later that day, Jackson opened more of his presents:
He was very excited about all of them, but especially about getting Criss Cross Crash which he has been wanting for months:
This year Jackson chose to go to dinner at IHOP, and then take a trip to the Mini Grand Prix. Which is exactly the same thing he has chosen to do for the last 2 years!
Poor Sade was just barely tall enough to ride the small go-carts, and really struggled to get them to move:
It was so cute and hilarious to watch:
Megan was very happy to finally be tall enough to ride some of the bigger go-carts alone:
Before leaving we made sure to ride the other kiddie rides. Sadie refused to ride anything else, because we had traumatized her earlier in the night by making her ride the tiny dragon roller coaster.
Whew.....It was a long day, but worth it for my little Jackson.

Eli loved it and said it was a lot of fun! IHOP...you're going to have to steer him to something else of its going to become a tradition!!!
What a good family that Jackson has, willing to go to IHOP repeatedly for him. I don't know many people I would go there for :) What a fun water party, I love the picture of Sadie throwing the water balloon at the boys!
Matthew hasn't stopped talking about it, nor has he let his car out of his hands for days. Thanks for including him! They really are hilarious together!
Brandon asked for the criss cross crash too and loves it. Looks like your trip to Utah has been fun. I am jealous. I was planning on going to Utah for a vacation this summer but alas I am in Texas sweating my guts out! Miss you guys!
