Caleb turned 7 and we celebrated ALL day!
Caleb wanted to open a present first thing
One of the presents that Ella picked out for him.
Our birthday tradition - #7 pancakes
Granddaddy and Mammy went to lunch with the birthday boy and two of his best buds.
I went for his birthday party at school and didn't take ANY pictures until we were walking down the hall to leave. We celebrated with donuts, strawberries and Kool-Aid with his class.
Ready to celebrate
My big 7 year old
He wanted to party "Avenger" style and I found these cute masks at Target
Captain America, Hulk and Thor - I mean Caleb, Mammy and Ella :)
Superhero Cousins
Owen and Jules ate dinner together and became quick friends
Brooklynn partied too!
We missed Rhett!
The big cousins at dinner
We had a taco bar with all the fixings
and an ice cream bar for dessert! Birthday boys requests!
What he had been waiting for all day - the presents!
Happy with his blind bags from Cole, Lena and Jodi
He is getting a basketball goal for us and the grandparents
Legos!
More presents
A marble run he had been wanting
A big bag of Twizzlers from Mammy
A remote control car from Granddaddy and Mammy
Money from GG and MeMa - he was thrilled. He said "Now, I'm rich"
Ice Cream for dessert
We had a great night celebrating with our family
Waiting while we sang to him
Blowing out his candle and making a wish
Sweet brother and sister
Cousins and best buddies!
We had a simple night celebrating but Caleb LOVED it! He said before bed "Mommy, I had the best birthday, what can I ever do to repay you? Some chores or something?" Love my sweet boy!
Caleb wanted to go to Chuck E Cheese and I didn't want to have a big party so we compromised and let him pick a few friends to go Friday after school. He wanted all boys but little sister tagged along!
The crew loaded up and ready to go. Ella had these boys under control!
Picture before they started playing
Grayson racking up on tickets
Video game time
Mattox playing basketball
Ella knows me well - she held up her bag and said "You want to take my picture?". Of course I do!
These boys were strategizing to get more tickets
So happy when a bunch came out!
Skee Ball and basketball
Riding a ride that Ella said was like the teacups at Disneyworld
Ready to cash their tickets in for prizes!
Ella and Daddy
Ella got 126 tickets!
Caleb's turn
Look at all his tickets
327 - whoa!
These three boys picked cotton candy for their prize
Dinner at the Creamery - hotdogs is what everyone wanted!
Best buddies
Ice cream for dessert (Pierce had to leave early so he missed the ice cream)
Me and my girl
Present time!
What a fun afternoon and no stress or party prep!
