Happy 4th Birthday Carter!

Carter is 4 today. I cannot believe he is already 4...where have the last 4 years gone? We had a birthday party for him last night and he had a great time. I watched Emily and Mason Friday afternoon so Emily helped me make the cupcakes for the party.



Yesterday we took Carter out for lunch before the party. We let him choose and we went to El Rancho. Then we went stove shopping and ran out of time so no purchase was made. We picked up my grandma and came home for the party. Carter wanted a Lightning McQueen party so Aunt Abby made him a LIghtning cake.


Carter is so lucky to have such great family. He loved all of his new toys. He is such a character, it is hard not to laugh at him constantly. HE was opening his cards and trying to read them himself. He would rattle off the generic birthday message and say who it was from. One time he ended it with AMEN. It was so funny. I love that he is so animated and he expresses everything he is feeling/thinking.

His first golf club. He is off to the driving range this morning to use it. He loves to golf.




He got a new helmet with Lightning McQueen on it and he tried it on with the packaging still on.

This is his reaction when Papa brought out his new bike and he spotted it. It was precious.






A very tired boy after a wonderful party.


Today, we are letting him decide how to spend his day. He wanted to go to the driving range so that is first on the list. I will hopefully post some pictures of that later because I sent the camera with them.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY BABY BOY!

That last picture got me choked up. I'm kind of sappy like that though :). How lucky for you to get such nice cuddles from your 4 year old. Bennett love to go golfing with Darrin. They went friday night and had a great time. I hope they brought home pictures for you.
