My Boy is 10!

James turned 10 yesterday I'm falling behind on my blogging so just posting now.   I can't believe how fast the 10 years have gone by and how grown up he is getting.  There is never a dull moment with this boy around and nothing is getting past him that is for sure he is destined to be a future CEO or maybe lawyer  because he does not take no for an answer and boy can he negotiate.  Right now he is planning to play football in the NFL when he grows up and I plan to be at every game!   

James on his new Kranked Ride, he's enjoying this more then his Ripstik right now.  However I could keep up with ripstik easier.   



Blowing out the candles I wonder what he wished for.. 
I asked them all to jump on the coach for a photo of all 4 kids on James birthday I took many and well this was the best... a photographer I am not. Taylor and Ashley were both trying to escape or either Damon or James was playing DS.  Seems to me capturing all 4 on one photo is a challenge even with a good camera. 

Here's James  #10 cake, french vanilla with mint chocolate buds and swedish berries for colour.  The kids love cakes that I decorate with candy always a big hit.  This is  birthday part 1 as James is having a party saturday with his friends from school I'll be taking 8 kids to see Ironman2 wish me luck.  Daddy will be home with the little ones.

I personally love the picture! Probably because I see my own girls trying to get away from the flash of the camera so many times over the years! :)

Happy Birthday to James!

Ahh, but yes, the time she does get away from us, doesn't she. Most times, I think it is a good thing. Our babies just shouldn't grow up so fast...I LOVE the pic on the couch, makes me giggle. Too funny. Great idea with the candy on the cake. I wondered what those were. I have made a cake with a rainbow on the top using m&m's. It turned out cute.
