May the force be with you..

Today was my nephews 10th birthday. How time flies! He is obsessed with Star Wars, so of course that was the theme of the day. He requested for me to make him a chocolate cake with chocolate icing with (the old guy?) Obi-wan Kenobi fighting Darth Vader. Now, I had never heard of any of the Star Wars characters before this past week..so it was tough, but I think he was very happy with the end result of his cake. He giggled with delight when we opened the box to show him...which made my day. Here is Spencer dressed as Darth Vader, or in Spencer's words his "Dark Fader helmet."

After cake and presents, Mackenzie swam.. (That is the birthday boy behind her, for some reason all of my pictures with him in it turned out kind of blurry..but that is him.)

Spencer prefers this size pool.. and I totally understand. I have never been a fan of being in water that I could not stand up and touch my feet to the ground..I think it is a control issue!

Baby Holden prefers to swing, watch all of the fun around him, and smile. He loves life!

And this is Riley, my mom's new YorkiePoo puppy... He gets his picture on here just because he is so cute and little!

After the party and swimming fun, my mom (A.K.A Nana) watched all of the kiddos so that John and I could get away and watch a movie together. We went to see The Time Travelers Wife...what a great saturday!!
