Honestly I have to say I will always cherish these memories we are making. Jante' and I committed to creating "experiences" for Cameron as much as we can. This one will go down in the books!

Camp Out
We have been planning this "camp out" for a while. It was originally scheduled for Easter weekend but because of all the rain we had to postpone. Today was the day. Great weather (finally) and so it was time! Of course I had it all planned out. Food, games and fun. Cameron through a monkey wrench in the plans by wanting to watch "a movie" on the computer. I told him that this was a "No Electronics Zone". After me explaining that "electronics" means computers and really anything with a plug he blinked those big brown eyes at me and of course I gave in!!!!!

Happy Easter
What a wonderful Easter Resurrection Sunday. After a weekend of HARD CORE rains and down pouring of cats and dogs the sun was up and bright this Sunday morning. It is truly a day to celebration the resurrection of our Heavenly Father.
Even though we missed the Easter Egg Hunt because of the rain we made sure that Cameron understood the true meaning of Easter. Easter bunnies are fine but he needed to know the true meaning. It's so wonderful to hear him tell us (this was the first year I think he truly "get's it") what this holiday is all about. They have done such a great job at the JCCC helping the parents with things like this.
Keeping with tradition, it was church and then dinner at Nana's. The food was great (except for the fact that she didn't make the banana pudding like she promised)! Even without the good sweets we had a great time.

Birthday Bash #5!!!!!
Well the time is finally here......Birthday Bash #5. I honestly have to say this was my favorite BDay Bash yet!!!!! Tons of upfront planning and a few last minute details but all in all the least prep work from me but the greatest impact!
Oh course it was TMNT themed and I found a TON of great ideas online (did I mention I love ETSY and Kara's Party Ideas). Since Cameron loves to cook we decided on the Young Chef's Academy for the location and wouldn't you know it.......Pizza (the TMNT's LOVE pizza) and cupcakes! Simple yet very impactful! The kids LOVED it and the parents loved seeing the kids participate the way they did.
Here are a few pictures from the day. And of course we are already talking about BDay Bash #6! REALLY??????!!!!!
