Happy Birthday Max!

MAX IS FIVE!
a whole hand.
We has a great breakfast...Ryan came home from work to eat with us.
We had biscuts and eggs and bacon. Then Max got to open up his presents.
He wanted a horsy cake. So, being how I am a lousy cake decorator, we put his horse and cowboy on the cake...it's really little up in the left corner. He wanted his horse to be drinking from a river, so the blue...yeah, that's supposed to be a pond and a stream. Like I said, I need help in the cake decorating business. It's what he wanted and he is thrilled with it, so I guess that's all that matters
He successfully blew out the candles, and kept his wish a secret, so maybe it will come true.
Everyone was so nice to send him birthday presents in the mail. Getting packages addressed to him was almost as fun as opening them. Max loves the knights and horses Grandma and Grandpa Maughan! Thanks !
The Horse blanket was a huge hit...do you see that smile? Thank you YiaYia and Papou! for the blanket and clothes and everything else! Also thank Grandma and Grandpa Passey for the transformer and the shirt!

Yes, HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Max!!!! I remember you stopping by the house of the girl around the corner from you (with kids with such strange names....aaggh! I can't remember what her name was! The Gilmore's live there now) with a newborn TINY, tiny Max. I was there for some party and wanted to get a peek at him so badly, but we weren't super good friends, so I felt weird popping up and demanding a look. Anyway, I did come to the door as you were leaving and take a peek and he was absolutely beautiful and so very small. And now he's FIVE! When did that happen?!
Love,
Britt

Happy Belated Birthday to Max. I can't believe he is five already. He was born just after I came into the family. Mara and Emma are growing up fast too!
