Greyson's 4th Birthday (A Day Early)

Since we're headed to Paris early tomorrow morning, we decided to celebrate Greyson's birthday a day early (which caused a lot of confusion for him.) We decorated our apartment with balloons and streamers to try to make it more festive. Greyson picked a Greek restaurant for dinner (it is his favorite restaurant in town because they give you lollipops and peppermints after dinner.) We ordered a cake from a local bakery that dates back to the 1700's. Out of all their cake designs, he chose a ladybug cake! We assumed since the bakery dates back to the 1700's that the cake would be very good--well, we were wrong. Jon thinks the cake may have actually been leftover from the 1700's. Even Greyson didn't think much of it. So after cake and ice cream he opened a couple of presents and played them for awhile.

We leave for Paris on the high speed train early tomorrow morning. It is about a 3-hour train ride. We're celebrating Greyson's 4th birthday (which is the 29th) and our anniversary with this mini-vacation. We're going to see the sites of Paris and take Greyson to Disneyland Paris for a day or two. We'll update the blog after we get back our trip on Monday afternoon.
