Another Birthday Celebration!

Blossom #3 turned eleven on Sunday!

We decorated his door with his favorite treats: hot Cheetos, spray candy, Sour Patch Kids and a huge Butterfinger candy bar.  He opened one gift right away in the morning... trading cards that he picked out.  He couldn't wait to see what was in the package.

After church and a quick lunch, we met my sister and her 2 boys at the nearby ski resort for snow tubing.  These cousins are Blossom #3's favorite friends in the whole world, so we were so glad they drove an hour and a half to meet us.  You can tell by Blossom #3's face that he was sad when our time together was over.

After tubing, we came home and had Blossom #3's scavenger for 11 one dollar bills.  Then we had one of his favorite suppers:  Salmon, rice and peas.


Presents, of course!


The day before our birthday celebration, I was gone for 12 hours at Blossom #2's basketball tournament.  I took the birthday boy with me to the tournament and while we were gone, Blossoms #1 and #4 were very busy!  They made the above tie blanket, baked and decorated the birthday cake, made birthday signs, decorated the house with balloons and streamers and, then, on top of all of that, they made french puffs for the birthday boy's breakfast... Blossom #1 got up early and made eggs to go with the french puff on Sunday morning.  Blossom #3 sure felt loved.


Kids always say the funniest things.  Blossom #3 said "I sure hope I make it to my next birthday" and I said "well, you've made it this far, I'm sure you can make it to your next birthday!" 

Hoping you always feel loved!
