Celebrations!! (And a New Cake)


On Saturday, it was Braxton's 4th birthday. I can't believe he is already four. We had a primary activity that morning and then Ryan and I took him to his first movie in a real theater. He has never been to a movie before. It was a lot of fun. He was so worried that he was going to get sprayed in the face with water because in Sea World we went to a 4D Elmo movie and he got sprayed. We saw Monsters vs Aliens. He really liked it and I didn't think it was that bad either. That night we started on Braxton's Buzz Lightyear cake.On Sunday, it was Mother's Day (of course) but it was also my niece's (Madison's) and my brother (Joe's) birthday. So we went to my parents house to celebrate. It was a lot of fun. The kids fought as usual while the parents talked. (And I got a nap-- Happy Mother's Day to me :)
That night when we got home we finished making Braxton's cake. It was fun to see it come together.


On Monday night we celebrated Braxton's birthday. We went to the park and had dinner and opened presents but we never even ate the cake. :(

People kept coming by to see our cake. Then at one point some lady told her husband that he HAD to come see "this cake". It was an awkward experience. As he invaded Braxton's birthday party. Welcome....I guess.

Braxton had so much fun playing with all of his cousins and presents.

Fantastic job on the cake Team Pace! I think you may have inspired me to actually make a cake or two for my kid's birthdays in June. We'll see... The more kids I have acquired, the less cakes I have made. I know, slacker mom.
