Cinco de Mayo is an important holiday around our house. We celebrate every year as a family, not because our roots are from Mexico but because it is Will's birthday. This year he turned 7 and we had a two day celebration. On odd number birthdays Brad and I take the birthday child out and leave the rest of the kids home to fend for themselves. Will chose to celebrate his birthday date at Boondocks.
We ate pizza, got wet on the bumper boats, drove like mad around the racetrack and watched those little tickets spit out of the game machines. Will was in heaven. 
Two years ago Brad and I decorated Will's room with streamers. Now every year he expects his room to be decorated for his birthday. How come kids have the best memories??
The day of his birthday Will was showered with cards at school, won his soccer game, fed his favorite meal and granted a little extra time before bed.
Of course his birthday is not complete without something related to the Utes. A little lop-sided but not to shabby when you have a 3 year-old breathing down your neck and a two year-old wrapped around your legs. Happy Birthday to a kind-hearted, talented, smart, active, happy kid!!
