Birthdays!!!

Can you believe it? Camden is going to be 7 this week...
And, Owen will be 5 next week.
I think I may have shed a tear when I wrote those numbers on their cakes this past weekend. For some reason the odd years always seem like they are a bigger jump to me.
This year their birthday was a little quieter than most... but they did get a gift that is pretty awesome. We surprised them the morning of their party with a Disney Cruise. We set sail real soon and they are so excited they can't even stand it.

I hope you all are having a good week!

Happy Belated Halloween & Merry X-Mas!!!

Since I posted last my super star big kid Cam won a math award at school that sure made me proud. He gets his math smarts from his daddy.
Then I spent my Halloween with Princess Belle...

The worlds cutest chicken
(note that he refused to say cheese and would only cluck for his pictures)

And, a very handsome football player.
We had a lot of fun going trick or treating.

I especially loved the Halloween Themed Pumpkin Cheesecake made by this wonderful blogger

The kids were fortunate enough to have fantastic friends along for the candy crusade!

Who said too much sugar is a bad thing. Doesn't every parent take their kids to the donut shop the morning after Halloween??
(note the completely full candy buckets in the background)
And, what day after Halloween is not filled with everything Holly & Jolly.
Say what? I know. But, I am married to Mr. Christmas and in our house Nov. 1st marks the holiday season.
So, I bid you adieu and Happy Holidays!!!
