Celebrating Luke

We woke Luke up a little early on his birthday so he could open presents before school. He was super excited about his new bike and ready to take the training wheels off. We decided that he should probably learn how to pedal it first- ha! (While he has fantastic balance from his Strider bike, he doesn't really have much practice pedaling.)

I brought donuts and orange juice (Luke's choice) to share with his sweet friends at school.

Luke and his buddy Zeke both turned four on the 25th so we sang to both of them. Luke requested that we sing to Zeke first. Sweet boy!

This is just my favorite picture of him!

Luke sure loves Mrs. Fisher!

After school we came home and got busy baking. Luke requested "a sprinkle cake with orange and green icing," so after getting what we needed, we got started! He was my little helper and actually helped with most of the process.

When I got home from work the following day, this is what I found...no training wheels! Luke quickly got the hang of it. While he can ride by himself, he hasn't quite mastered how to brake. And, he is frequently distracted. ;)

Thursday evening we had family over to open gifts and eat the cake that we worked so hard on.

We hope you had a wonderful birthday, Luke Michael. We sure had fun celebrating with you!
