Happy 5th Birthday Peyton!

I cannot believe that my baby boy turned five today! It seems like only yesterday that he was born! To celebrate today, Nana watched Trevor and Morgan while Peyton and I had a lunch date. (Calling it a date was a bad idea. He said he didn't want to go because I already had husband. When I told him it wasn't that kind of date, he said, "Well.. do we have to kiss?") We had a great time being together just the two of us! We had his birthday party two weekends ago at the YMCA. It was a great place to have a party. All we had to do was bring the cake!
He had a super cool Spiderman cake that had all the villians and Spiderman swung around the building.

He got a lot of great presents but his favorite by far was his Nintendo DS!
He loved swimming with his friends in the indoor pool! Nobody wanted to go home! Happy 5th Birthday Peyton! I love you!
Trevor's baseball team played in a tournament in Clinton last weekend and finished runner-up (2nd) with a record of 4-1 for the weekend! We don't have a tournament this coming weekend. I wonder what we will do with all that free time? What did we do before baseball?
"I've had one too many sno-cones!"
Not only is today Peyton's 5th birthday, but it is also our 9th anniversary. I can't believe that we have been married 9 years and together for 14 years. It seems like only yesterday that we were sitting next to each other in Mrs. Blush's algebra class. Gene, I am so lucky to have such a wonderful husband. You are my very best friend and you are an amazing dad! I am so proud to say that you are my husband! God has blessed me more than I will ever deserve and I thank him for all the years that he has given us and pray that we will have many more together! I love you!

That little guy has grown so much since I last saw him. Actually, they all have! Very cool cake; what boy wouldn't want that?! And that pic of Morgon is a riot!

Happy anniversary to you and Gene!

One more thing: I remember having Peyton in VBS, and with him sitting in my lap, he said, "Jesus died to give us our sins." (Of course, we know he meant FORgive, but it still cracks me up! You two are great parents.)
