Birthday Pottery

Micah turned six last week and Joshua and I took him to paint pottery for his birthday present.

We arrived at the store twelve minutes before they opened, so we took Micah to a bakery next door and had a treat while we waited. A cookie before lunch!!

They had recently had a birthday party, so we got to sit at the table by the banner.

Micah picked out a turkey to paint and we painted an ice cream dish.

Although the lady working there drove us a bit nuts at the beginning by hovering over us (she actually told Micah how to paint his turkey at one point!), we enjoyed the opportunity to spend some time with just Micah and I think he had fun on his special excursion.
