Happy Birthday to SHADE!!!

Today is my little man Shade's birthday!! I can't believe how grown up he is. It has all happened so fast. Our lives are defiantly more action packed from his very rushed entrance to today. We would not change one little thing about this crazy boy. He always keeps us laughing, and running. We get a good workout chasing this boy around.

We have had a great day today. We opened a few presents this morning because he could not wait, then we met some friends at the local Swim Park. Really just a concrete slab with water spraying out, but the best thing in the world on these hot days. Zach drove home this weekend so he could be here for his birthday so we opened presents again tonight. He got some great things, and thank you to all of you that thought of him today!!! The scary part of this day is that last year we were in Idaho for his birthday and my sister who makes cakes as a business, check out Cakes By Courtney on my link list, made him a lion cake. She set the bar WAY to high. Shade asked for a Crocodile cake this year. I was left out when the craft talent was handed out. I can not do creative things like that. I tried my hardest and made him a croc cake. I think it turned out ok. You can check out the pictures later.

We had a great day, and are so proud of our little Shade. He is such a great blessing in our lives. I am so thankful for him every single day. We love you Shade. Happy Birthday!!! Shade 1 day old
