My 10 year old

 Happy 10th Birthday to my Gabe!

 We celebrated Gabe entering double digits with a spy-themed birthday party.  He had asked me to make him a secret agent silhouette cake, and I was more than happy to give it a go.  I love making my boys' birthday cakes!

 Every Secret Agent received a "Top Secret" mission folder, a name badge, and secret agent disguises.

 I love it!

 We had agility training with the agents trying to avoid the laser beams.

 Critical thinking training.

 I love that smile!

 He received a 3Ds from my mom.  What a lucky guy!

 I love that he has some great friends in his life.

 Gabe and Graedon with Papaw.  Mamaw was definitely missed.

Great photo of Gabe with my dad.

Gabe Turns 7

I am a little late in posting about the boys' birthday celebrations, but I am here to remedy that with photos!

Gabe obviously had a Toy Story themed party here at our home.

We had a great turnout, and I am just humbled at how many friends and family showed up to help celebrate Gabe!

Hope you enjoy some of the photos from the party!

We had one of those blow up water slides for the kiddos to enjoy since his birthday falls during the dog days of summer heat!  That will explain the shirtlessness.  :-)

I made the banner, and I had so much fun doing it.  I think Graedon was more impressed with it than Gabe.

Also, it was my first time making cake pops, and they were a huge hit!

It's been too long

Has it really been over a month since I last posted?!?!  Wow!!  I knew it had been awhile, but no idea it had been this long.  I can't say that things haven't been busy around here though, but I am sad that the summer is quickly fading!  I am trying to hold on to as much as I can.

In other news....

My Gabe is turning 7 in 13 days!!  How is that possible?!?!?
I am not ready for this growing up thing anymore. 
Can I stomp my foot and say that I am not going to participate in
growing older (my kids included?)
Can you tell we're throwing a Toy Story party?

And what about this?

Seriously, first you take away my summer and you make my kids grow older, but now you want them to go to school? 

I don't like where this is going. 

Oh, how I have missed my blog.
