Better Late Than Never Birthday Post :)

 On the 21st of September was Theo's birthday, he turned

12 years old. He LOVED all his presents and had a great day :)

 

 

The first present Theo chose to open was the present from Mama and Papa.

                                                                   

          Hmmm... I wonder what it is?????.......

     Opening it :)

                                    
             Wow.... He got a compound bow! With arrows and a .......

 

                                                     ...... HUGE CUBE :)

 The first thing he wanted to do was go outside and try it out :)

He had a hard time getting it to go back far a enough. But he kept trying....

 Papa helped him at first, but by the end of the day he had it figured out :)

 

 Good one!!!

  

Then that night he opened the rest of his presents :)

 First he opened Gm Elaine and Pop's card, Then Aunt Lynn and Uncle Paul's card,

Then he opened Grandpa Gene's card.

                                    

                                         Then Theo opened the present Marty gave him.
                                             Marty gave him an Avengers drawing book.

 

                                             Then he got a craving glove from Aunt Sheila :)

                               Then from Mama and Papa he got a chin up bar, like he asked for.

                                 Then it was time to have cake!! YEAH.

When we were getting the cake ready, Theo just couldn't stop looking at his new book :)

    Happy Birthday to you....

                                                                 Happy Birthday to you....

                                                                 Blow out the candles :)

                                                  And Sarah and I gave Theo the hatchet,

Mama made the cake to look like a log with the hatchet in it,

then she died coconut green, to look like grass:)

 

 This is a video of Theo cutting the cake.

I hope it works :)

 

 

 

                                                         

 

            

    

Mama's Birthday

 

Tuesday was Mama's birthday, we opened presents then we went out for dinner.

 Theo and Marty got her a bird feeder.

 Marty made her this really cool pop-up card.

 Sarah and I gave her these special sewing scissors she wanted :)

 And Papa gave her Red Bird peppermints that she loves :)

"Old to New"

We turned this old box into a pretty center piece for the dinning room.

 Before

 Spray painted it green... and.... after!

 The flowers are from are garden in Meadford, we had this out during are "House Warming Party" everyone thought it was pretty, and we enjoyed it for about a week after too.

Trip for the End of the Summer!

 

 

  Thursday afternoon Papa took us to

Ocean City for the end of summer!!!

 

 We had a great time swimming.

 

                                                              Amy took this picture!!

  

Amy wrote this in the sand before we left.

 

After swimming we got something to eat.

Then we went to the Taffy store and got some taffy :)

 

 

After that we went to

 

 The first ride we went on was "The Python"

 Getting on.

 

 

Papa took this picture after we got off the ride.

 

Then we went on this ride called "Cliff Hanger"

It was fun, and it kinda felt like you were flying!!!

 

After the rides we got ice cream at

 

We had a great time at Ocean City and love going there! 

Decortive Post

 

 I found this cool post idea on Pinterest,
so I made one for our front doorstep.
 

Here are pictures of it :)
 

 

Not painted yet.

 All done :) I painted the sign white and used a paint marker to write the word.

Our porch is boring-- this helps  out.
