Party Time

We celebrated Logan's birthday with our family and neighborhood friends at our pool. It was fun and extra special because we could celebrate on Logan's actual birthday. Summer birthdays are tricky because the kids are either younger or older (compared to other kids in their grade level) and they miss out on celebrating at school. Oh well because summer birthdays are SO MUCH fun to celebrate at the pool with a mommy who has energy rather than being wiped out from school!!!



Ready to open presents...

Logan wanted me to make him a football cake. He was happy with this one and even happier because it was a chocolate cake with chocolate icing. Too rich for me but he was all smiles!

Aunt Jenn with the birthday boy...

Like father like son...

Sam loved the rich, chocolate cake too...

He also loved hanging with his Uncle David...

Claire and Addie have the same swimsuits and it wasn't even planned. They are the cutest!

And here are two of our favorite cousins that we love...

Logan opted for a big friend party this year instead of getting a present from us. So, we had a big bash at the Glow Galaxy. It is an indoor fun zone with inflatables, miniature golf, games, and dancing. The best part about it is everything glows in the dark. It is super cool and even better because David and I just sat back and watched the fun!

The birthday boy got a tye-dyed shirt (or dye-tye as Logan says) and gets to run through a bunch of screaming boys. FUN...let me tell ya...

The party bunch...(Addie hung well with all of the boys and 2 girls)

Yes, I made another cake. This time Logan wanted a Saints cake. I worked hard on it and Logan loved it. Only, the Saints are black and gold. I knew this but got a little carried away coloring the gold and it turned to orange when it hardened. David couldn't stop laughing at me but Logan was sweet. He told me it was a Saints cake and he liked it. (Oh...one little boy did say he thought the Bengals were Black and Orange...not the Saints. I acted like he was a little color blind. :)

Another cool part was sitting in the throne to open up presents. Logan was so happy and excited!

The 7 year old had double the fun with his parties. Here he is all decked out in some of his favorite birthday presents. He is a HUGE Saints fan so he was super excited to get a Drew Brees jersey from his PawDaddy and he picked out a Saints hat with a gift certificate from his Nana and Pop. He also wears a UT t-shirt non-stop that his Grammy and Papa Skip gave him. Do you see a trend here? Logan is a SPORTS FAN! He just can't get enough!

7 fun things about Logan:

1. He loves sports.
2. He loves ice cream. Cookies 'n Cream is his favorite.

3. Did I mention he loves sports? He would much rather watch sports over cartoons.

4. He would rather play outside over inside. When he does play inside, he loves to play with his Legos. This is something he is just starting to get really into!

5. Did I mention he loves sports? He watches sports clips on the computer rather than play games on the computer.

6. He is super sweet when he wants to be but he is very hard headed when he wants to be.

7. Did I mention that HE IS A SPORTS NUT! :)

We love you Logan and are so proud of you! It's been a sweet and fun 7 years!
