Bryson's 5th Birthday





Bryson Scott Hughes turned 5 on October 2nd.  We were so excited that we were close to family to celebrate the event with us.  On Sep. 30th we did a three person party at the Barlow/our house.  Carlie (18), Eldon (3), and Bryson (5) were the people being celebrated.  I decorated cupcakes for each person.  Bryson wanted Toy Story cupcakes.  I failed to do exactly what he wanted, but this year mom’s best was just going to have to be good enough.  He had a great party doing the games that he wanted and getting some wonderful gifts.  He has had lots of fun this week playing with his new toys. 
On his actual birthday Dad was able to get off in time that we could to to McDonald’s for dinner and then miniature golf at Trafalga.  We invited my side of the family to that and were so happy to have a few of my siblings and their families come on such short notice.  Bryson had a great birthday!
This little boy isn’t little anymore.  He has really started to help me with a lot of things.  With Jaron off to school most of the day he has taken the role as lead brother and doing a fabulous job.  He is the first to do his chores in the morning and very often doesn’t complain.  Bryson loves to play baseball, watch movies, and play computer.  He has really taken to riding his scooter now that there is a place he can ride it.  Bryson is so companionate.  He is the first to respond to an injury or hurt feelings.  He is right there to solve anyone’s problem.  He is very brave although he does not like to do dare devil type stuff.  He doesn’t cry when getting shots and lots of times holds the tears back until he just can’t anymore.  He is developing his love for learning.  He really likes science which is fun for me.  He is continuing to grow big and strong and is my least picky eater. He used to not like meat much but now that isn’t even a problem.
