What a happy day we had! Ethan turned three and Mallory turned one all on the same day! Ok, not really. They were born two days apart but for the sake of their mother we had a combined birthday party. Ethan has been talking about his birthday party since John's last birthday last summer. He was so excited that his birthday in March had finally come. For a while he wanted to have a 'Cars' themed birthday party but about a month before his birthday he was introduced to 'The Lone Ranger'. If you aren't familiar it is an old black and white cowboy television show. Johnny and Ethan LOVE it and will sit there and watch it all day - if I let them of course:). So Ethan decided he wanted have a 'Lone Ranger' birthday he also kept telling everyone that Lone Ranger was really going to come. Yikes -- that is a hard one to pull off. It is a good thing that we live next door to someone who had a Lone Ranger costume. Grandma Pearson saved the day along with Kevin. Lone Ranger did come and look at Ethan's face. He was SHOCKED. (Like his Mom wouldn't pull through..right) It was so fun to see his excitement. Uncle Kevin did such a great job being Lone Ranger. The best part is that Johnny for the longest time told me that he wanted to be the little ranger. So we bought him some guns, a holister, and a mask, and of course Grandma Pearson had a little lone ranger costume as well. John LOVED being in disguise and "tricking" everyone. It was so fun to see him so excited about making Ethan's wish come true.
