Turkey+ Birthday= lots of fun!

Yesterday we celebrated both Thanksgiving and Nolan's birthday!  The little man turned 7!  It's so fun to see birthdays through they eyes of a child.  From the moment he woke up he was bubbling over with excitement for the day.  First up, breakfast of his choice (breakfast pizza), then presents! 

Then it was time to get ready for Thanksgiving dinner.  We had a ton of food, great time with family and lots of laughs!  Nolan requested a Mario cake so I used one of those online stores to order an edible cake image.  It worked great!  I also tried my hand at making a homemade yellow cake.  It was more dense than a regular cake mix, but not dry.  I may try that again in the future!

The kids bundled up to play NERF guns outside, and were busy playing Wii and watching movies. The kids had a sleepover with their cousins, so that meant staying up late and sleeping in (hopefully, it's still early!)  We are so blessed to be able to spend the holiday with all of our family. 

New bases for playing baseball!!
