Anyways... He came up with this super plan (it was all just in his head, he said) for his birthday cake. It would have a racetrack with actual toy race cars on it. And there would be people watching the race on some sort of 3 dimensional stands and the people would be M&Ms. It should also have his name and a 6 on it somewhere. I'm on it, I said.

Happy Birthday Jacob!
Do you ever look at your kid and think "holy moly when did he suddenly get so big I can't lift him into the grocery cart anymore and he also shouldn't really be in the grocery cart?" ... Well I did! Jacob turned 6 and he is definitely not "little" anymore. He has become a passionate, compassionate, awesome kid! I'm amazed.

LEGO Quest #2
**This was borrowed DIRECTLY from this site.**
Monochromatic colour scheme.
Pick a colour, any colour, and use only that colour of LEGO.
Build anything. The sky is the limit. A structure, a sculpture, functional, non-functional, anything at all, but you can only use one colour!
Daniel: It's a little bad guy getaway boat. It has a door. The thing on top tells everybody something like "There's a meeting today."

Get your LEGO out, it's time for LEGO Quest Challenge #1
This can be simple or extremely complex, it's up to you. The only real rule is that it has to be custom built. Your own creation, not a pre-designed one.
Daniel: Mine has a tow hook and can tow cars. It has real stairs and moving stairs because my car is very big. They have a suitcase to deliver to the suitcase store.
Jacob: It's a fire truck car. The spoiler makes it go fast. I built a tunnel for the fire truck to go through.
