I took cupcakes to his class during snack time and he loved passing out his treat to his friends.

After school he was so happy to put together his new Lego set. He has gotten so proficient at putting them together that he had it completely done in about an hour.
When Allen got home, he opened the rest of his gifts. More Indiana Jones Legos, a new board game, some books and an Indiana Jones costume, hat, whip and bag. Can you tell what his new obsession is?

We went to dinner at Rubio's (Carter's choice)

Had Indiana Jones birthday cake with some friends:

Had Indiana Jones birthday cake with some friends:

Yesterday we went miniature golfing for his birthday activity (I've gone to the friends party every other year plan). It started out really fun:

And ended with this:
Yep, Makenna walked right in front of Carter as he swung his golf club. It sliced open her eye and was gushing blood. We rushed to the ER where she received 6 stitches! We were only on the 5th hole when it happened so we'll have to do something else to make up for it. Kenna was a total trooper and hardly cried at all getting her stitches. Carter felt HORRIBLE even though it wasn't his fault. Life with kids... so unpredictable. Makenna absolutely loved all the attention she got at church today and proudly showed off her injury!

Happy Birthday Carter! Indiana Jones is super cool!
Sorry to Makenna for her injury! ;( I hope your cut gets better really soon!
Monique, your cake looks fabulous. VERY creative! (I had no idea how you were going to and Indy cake.)
There is no way that he is 6!!! he was just 13 months when you called me to be in YW's w/ you! Wow! He is so grown up.
Glad all his gifts worked out, they look amazing. You cake is wonderful too!
I hope Miss M. heals fast!
Wow! I'm so impressed with your cake.
I'm so sorry about Makenna. Ryan had stiches on his eyebrow last Spring. His scar looks cute now. It makes him unique.
Awesome birthday! Score on all the IJ gifts!
Love that you are doing a friend party every other year. That is my plan, too. :)
Poor Kenna!!! What a tough girl. Hope it heals fast.
Oh, my, unpredictable is the right word! Carter reminds me an awful lot of Jackson. Jackson's entire Christmas was LEGO sets, and then he had it all built in a week.
Wow, poor Makenna! Tell her I'm impressed that she's so tough!
Wow - great job on the cake! It turned out awesome! I'm glad Carter had a great birthday!
Ouch though, poor Makenna!!! She is one tough cookie! I hope her cut heals quickly!
Happy Birthday to your big boy! 6 seems impossible, we're right on your heels. Crazy. What a smart and handsome boy you've got there.
Awesome Indiana Jones party stuff. SO SORRY about poor Makenna's eye! Oh my goodness, what a way to end the day. Unpredictable, like you said. Hope she heals quickly.
awww, I'm loving your little birthday dude! Happy Birthday, cute Carter!
Os sorry to hear about M's injury.... I'm impressed with how brave she was for the stitches. Now she has her mandatory "I had stitches when..." story. Everybody needs one!
What a perfect Indiana Jones birthday!
That cake is too cute.
Poor Makenna and poor Carter, I bet he feels so bad about that accident.
that's quite the b-day haul! what a fun day, looks like he had a blast. i can't believe you were in the ER again....M looks like a trooper. will she scar?
I love Carter's huge smile! He looks so excited in every picture! What a cutie!
Is that chocolate on his face? Can you believe that they are SIX? Time is going too fast! Only six more years until NYC!
Carter gets cuter every day and he's so boy! Sorry about the eye injury and glad the cut was on the lid and not right on the eyeball. Raising children is hair raising, no? Yes!
Mom
what a fun cake and a great day for him.
Makenna's eye? Ouch! Poor girl!
