M&M Explosion Cake

 Sweet big sister worked hard to make an M&M explosion chocolate cake from scratch for Graham's birthday. 

And homemade bacon burgers, twice baked potatoes and kiddie cocktails made with fresh snow. Full bellies today!

Birthday Snowstorm

In honor of Graham's 9th birthday, Mother Nature poured down nine inches of snow!  And it was the best, wet heavy packing snow.  

Happy 9th Birthday Graham!

 

G had an awesome 9th birthday! The three big kids were so eager to celebrate that they woke up at 6am with Christmas-like excitement. The day started with pancakes and bacon plus gifts. Graham got a huge squishamallow, Goodr sunglasses, Wings of Fire book, art kit, bat donut, and his own iPad. He's beyond thrilled about the iPad.  

This kid is truly awesome. He's kind, thoughtful, sensitive yet also athletic, smart and funny. His love of Aveen literally makes my heart melt.  Every time Aveen comes in and out of a room, Graham lights up at her (and Aveen lights back up at him).  Plus he's genuinely so helpful with her.  And Graham is also an excellent older brother to Quinn, who he has really taken under his wing and they have become super close.
