Last year before Hayden started Kindergarten, we decided we wanted to make the night before school starts special for the kids. This year we let Hayden choose the entire meal and we served it on "real" plates (instead of kid plates) and had "real" glasses for them to drink out of. Hayden felt like a king last night and said it was his special day!
Hayden's meal choice was grilled steak and shrimp, baked potatoes with bacon, broccoli (no cheese sauce), rolls, and jello. The drink he chose was rootbeer followed by cookies and rootbeer float ice cream. Hayden insisted that he have his own stick with shrimp on it!
Getting ready to eat
The remnants of Hayden's shrimp. I think he is getting messier with age. He had a big plate to eat on and he still managed to leave shrimp tails all over the table, nice. I must also mention that he ate about half of the tales, we always tell him not to eat them but he insists they taste really good!

Oooooo, Yum! I want that as MY special dinner. That sounds SO good. Nice choice Hayden!
Yum!!!! If it makes him feel any better, Uncle Steve has a hard time dealing with the tails too...though he doesn't eat them. They just get in his way.
