Thomas is 4, but Still My Little Boy

The morning of his birthday party, Thomas went to Lowe's with Jeremy, Bailey, and Dad for a workshop. They made a semi with a wooden car in the container! What a perfect way to start his big day. He even used a hammer, got an apron, and a patch for completing the task. Such a great free Dad and son event!




Thomas had his 4th birthday party this past weekend. It was a Monster Truck theme party at the park. He shared his party with he friend Jackson that was turning 5. He asked Grandma to make him a blue monster truck cake...a blue Ford F150 XLT, to be exact. And she nailed it! This cake was the talk of the party, for obvious reasons!
As you can tell, if you don't already know, Thomas has two favorite things right now...the color blue and trucks. Notice the blue shirt with the monster truck on it?

Pin the License Plate on the Monster Truck (blue, of course)...




Lily wore her Little Sister shirt for her brother's party, but we soon had to cover it up with a sweater because it got so cold.

The party was so great. Perfect weather, lots of friends and family, games, food, and awesome cakes! Thank you for helping make it perfect everyone that came. And, we missed those of you who couldn't come.
Thomas told me he was going to be four soon, but I shouldn't be sad because he would still be my little boy. Isn't it wild that he knows what I need to hear!?


After the party, our family and Jackson's family came to our house to open gifts and have pizza. Look how calm they all are at their indoor pizza picnic! We were amazed and grateful that everyone got along. It was so quiet, the men actually got to watch some football!
