JJ had a fairly large turn out for his birthday. He always seems to bring the crowds. He had a lot of fun and got a lot of money. He was so excited. Every time he opened a card with money he would hurry and add it to the money he already had. He totaled out at $150. Man that kid is rich. He loved everything he got. He especially was glad to get his Indiana Jones Lego's DS. Thanks Mama and Papa. I think the DS has been taken away since his birthday though...so not much playing time. He wanted a soccer cake for his birthday. He saw how I was making it and asked me to change it a little. His wish was my command, and wallah we had a fully round soccer ball. Jeron said it needed to be pumped up. It looks really cool from far away, but once you get up close it is pretty sad.
With the large gathering we couldn't fit in our itty bitty kitchen so we blew out candles in the family room. On his actual birthday he didn't have the strength to blow out all nine candles so we were hoping this time he could. And yes he did. He was sick on his actual birthday. When he went to blow he coughed instead.
We were able to get a picture of everyone that came except Julie and Kylie. They left before Mom found her brain. I guess standing in a kitchen making a cake all day fries the brain. Griffin, Jana and Graydon were all there as well.
John Actually did come by on JJ's birthday but we didn't take a pic then.
So we got it on Emma's B-day.
Same thing with Smitty and Ashlee.

Ok, so SPECTACULAR cake!! All my kids ever get is a Duncan Hines with store brought frosting...and if we're really getting into the birthday spirit, maybe SPRINKLES :)
