Deacon turns SIX!

July 30, 2020 Deacon turned 6 years old! He woke up to a decorated door and a decorated front yard!

He was pretty excited that I was able to put up a sign for him from the company I work for.  

He loved the sports graphics, but especially the pro controller remote ;) he loves the Nintendo Switch right now! 

We started the morning with traditional donuts! He loves the blue ones right now! 

He played some games and then we watched his favorite movie "Planes" in the afternoon. I think this picture depicts Cavin and his relationship perfectly. They are super close brothers, and I love it.  

Channing of course always has to snuggle with someone as well! 

Of course he wanted popcorn with his movie! 

Cavin was sweet and wanted to make him a birthday cake and cupcakes for his party with his grandparents and cousins. They all came over and we had pizza and they played a couple games outside and enjoyed playing together. Since we can't do a lot with friends right now, Deacon was super excited to have his cousins come.

Deacon thought it was pretty cool! 

He had been asking all day to open presents, so he was excited to do it with his cousins.  

He got a basketball, beanie boo, mini robot, fishing pole, squirt guns, clothes (which he was less than thrilled about..but hey they are necessary), pickle ball rackets, nerf guns, a pro remote controller, and a water bottle.  

He says he had a fun day, and I am glad! I'm bummed all the kids' birthday's fell during the quarantine, but they took it in stride and did well despite them not being as exciting as they could be. 

Deacon really is a fun kid. He is so energetic and always moving. He loves sports, all of them! He especially loves soccer and basketball though. He is naturally very talented at them and so it is fun to watch him. He was born with a natural confidence about him and always walks with a swagger ;) He has always been mature for his age and wants to hang out with kids much older than him and do things they are doing. He is always up for a challenge, and if you can do it, he can to! He is sweet and will still give me lots of hugs. I always say to him "Hey Deacon do you know what?" and he will always say back "I know mom, you love me." He loves to play games with the family and is always asking to play. His favorites are UNO attack, Skipbo, and 5 Crowns. I think during the quarantine he has played 5 crowns almost everyday! He has gotten really good at math because we put him in charge of the score sheet and he has gotten good at adding all the points. He loves goldfish, fruit snacks, and vanilla wafers. He prefers vanilla and usually won't eat chocolate. His favorite color is red because he loves the Houston Rockets. He loves to do anything with his brother, but currently playing Minecraft on the Nintendo Switch is his favorite. He says "LETS GO!" often when he's excited. He also has an imaginary friend named Jeffey that he often refers to and sometimes when I go to sit down he will say Jeffey is sitting there. Currently Jeffey is 3 years old, 7 ft tall, and 635 pounds..he certainly is big enough to protect him ;) We sure love him and his personality.
