Preston turns 6

Yep, our little man is now 6! Crazy, I know. He had a good day at school and got lots of cards from classmates. After school we took him to get his first pet-a fish! And of course, being our P-Dub, he named it Fish Of God. We're calling it FOG, mostly. We finished the day with hot dogs, french fries, cake, and opening gifts from Grandma Judy.
Here are some of the pictures. And in case you're wondering, yes, that IS a Tardis cake. I baked and shaped it and Tarehna did the decorating.

Wanted to do some sort of craft with Preston the other day and wasn't sure what to do. We had an empty 2 liter so I asked preston what he wanted to make. Well here are the results, could probably use a touch of paint, but it turned out quite well, I think.
