Birthday Fun

Just found this in my drafts....I'm going ahead and sharing, a few pictures are missing but as soon as we deal with the computer that crashed and find them I'll share.

2010 birthdays and cakes...

Twins 5th birthday...went the easy route and just made regular cake and put big cars on top!  They thought it was great!  The yellow candle played "Happy Birthday" tune.  We were in the middle of soccer games in May!

Blowing out the candle...Zeb in red, Josiah in blue.  I couldn't get Zeb to sit up tall...he's not that short!

Birthday dinner w/Mema and Pepa in Clarksville!  Twins choice...PIZZA!  Got everyone but Briar in this picture...well, and me, of course but I was behind the camera :o)

Abbie's cake and pictures are on the computer that crashed and will have to wait...she turned 7 and we celebrated w/my folks at Chik-fil-a and had a sort of carousel cake but it's better told w/pictures...I'll make a WHOLE post on it...a bit of a drama to that one LOL!

I don't know what happened to the pictures of Hannah's bday and cake (9th).  We had soccer championship games before and after her birthday and I must have used one of the older children's cameras or a throw away one.  When I find it, I'll add it.

While at church camp (July 2010), Briar made the decision to become a Christian.  We got a call and made it to camp in time for Ben to do the honors and baptize our oldest son in Christ.  The same camp we met 22yrs ago!

July is now Briar's SPIRITUAL Birthday.

So glad we made it in time...Ben has now baptized both of our oldest children.

Moments after his baptism--so proud of our son--now our brother in Christ!!!  Oh HAPPY DAY!
"I have no greater joy than to hear that my children walk in truth" 3 John 1:4  Our oldest 2 now walk in truth...

July 16th...few days after our anniversary...Bonnie's birthday cake...Panda Bear...w/pink candles!  Had a few issues w/the cake, but it turned out okay!  This is what the b-day cakes USUALLY look like!  Some sort of animal, etc.   By the way, those aren't sunglasses she's wearing, those are Irlen filters on her lenses!

July 28th, Ben's fire hazard cake LOL!  Yes, we actually lit all 39 candles!

The smoke that lingered after he blew them out!!  Amazed that it didn't set the fire alarm off!  LOL!

Close up of cake...John Deere tractor and what was left of the candles...look at all that wax!!

My handsome Hubby on his birthday...at our neighbors.  He had no idea we planned a party!  He was surprised!!   We even had pizza there!  He thought he had to go help with their plumbing~!  HAHA!!

Hmmmm, seems I did several easy cakes this year just in the pan with decorations on the cake...  Briar LOVES Star Wars and these were his new figurines.  Cake decor and present all in one LOL!

Happy Boy!  Officially a teen...13th birthday, Aug 5th.  His birthday signals the end of the long string of spring/summer bdays!

Oct 3, Pop (our neighbor who adopted our dc as more grands!) helping Angus open his present from them...such a serious look there...

Happy Birthday!!  Handful of cars from Pop and Ms. JoAnn and the hat from Mom and Dad...he's ready to go home now and he had to carry his cars instead of use the new bag he also got for them LOL!  Another little boy who LOVES cars!  Poor sweetie had chicken pox on his birthday...so we did his official b-day cake later when he wasn't spotty!!

Another picture AWOL....I KNOW I made him a cake :o)
