Happy 5th Birthday!

So I realized just today that I didn't blog about my older son's birthday, which was February 23rd.  The reason behind that is this:  he's 9.  'Nuff said.  LOL  He didn't want anything crafty or cute....and I only got 1 pic of him opening his present.  He didn't feel well that evening either, so we didn't even have any CAKE!  and for any of you that know my son, that is MAJOR!  LOL

So today was R's birthday. He turned 5, and he's been looking forward to it with so much anticipation.  I realized the day was a hit when he said to me, "Mom, this is the best birthday EVER!"  Right on, little dude!!

First, a picture of him with is birthday shirt (which he LOVED!! despite its being not centered and crooked!)

Next, a picture of his football cake...this is what he requested!

Perfect? No.  Perfect to him? YES.

At the end of the day, I can sit and say: I'm not a fabulous baker/decorator.  I'm not an expert t-shirt maker.  I can hardly take a decent picture to save my life!  But I am a mom who loves her kids, and I will do all I can to make them happy.
