Nick is 7

As I may have already mentioned.  I was in California on Nick's birthday.  I am posting the pictures that Erik was good enough to take.  

Notice the fun day at Boondock's and opening presents.   

The picture below is very blurry, but you get the idea.  If you walk away with a sword and an eye patch you know it was a good day.

I didn't even think about the cake.  So Erik improvised with a Hostess Cupcake he found in the freezer.  Nick does love them.  (Don't worry Nick I will be making you an official birthday cake on Sunday.)  This birthday just keeps on going.   

He had a very fun day.  His dad even got to spotlight him at school.   (For some reason, Dad doing this is so much more exciting than Mom???)  I love you Nick, and I am glad you had such a great day!

For Nicholas

This post is short but sweet and dedicated to Nicholas.   He turns 7 on Friday!!  I can't believe it.  Time flies when you are having fun I guess.   He is sweet a great member of our family.   He is a true first born and a big helper to me.   He loves his brothers and will do anything for them.  I couldn't ask for a better son.  

There will be more to came for this tribute to my first born, but my Grandmother has passed away and I will be gone for his birthday  (not to mention I am borrowing a computer to post this).
