Happy Birthday Hayden

I love this kid.  We had such a fun birthday for him.  The Saturday before his b-day we took some friends to nickel city to celebrate with him..  It was super fun for them and I liked it because they were very entertained.  The next day we went to grandmas and grandpas to have a party.  Grandma made him a cake.  They always make it super fun for the grandkids.  He scored big time with DS games.  He got four of them!

Crochet Newsboy Cap

I had to post pictures of this hat because I LOVED how it turned out.  Plus Carly looks so stinking cute in it.  The flower comes off and can be worn on other things.

Happenings

Things have been pretty busy around here lately especially for Hayden.  On Valentines day he lost one of his front teeth while eating breakfast.  We never did find the tooth so I am just assuming he swallowed eat while eating his raisin bran crunch.  He was worried that the tooth fairy would come even though he couldn't find his tooth and was very relieved the next morning when he found a dollar under his pillow.  

We also had the science fair this past week.  Both the kids did a great job. Carlys was to find out why some soda floated and some sank.  The diet floats and the regular sinks just in case you were wondering.  Haydens was to find out how much salt it took to make an egg float.  Hayden ended up winning third place.  He was soooooooooooooo excited.  

Today I took Hayden and a few of his buddies to nickel city for his birthday party.  I only let my kids have friend parties on the big birthdays like 8, 12, 16.  It turned out the be fun.  We are going to celebrate with the family and cousins on the same day as his baptism which in coming up in two weeks.  I decided to was too much to have a party for friends and then another for family and a baptism all within the same two weeks.  My brain can only handle so much.  

Scouts

Well for those of you that don't know I am the assistant cub master.  It has turned out to be a fun calling.  It is super fun to go to the meetings and see the boys get so excited about everything.  What makes it even more fun is that Hayden is turning 8 this month and gets to go.  The wolf den is really small right now so they have let him start coming early and he loves it.  It is so fun to watch him go and interact with the other scouts.   Last week was Blue and Gold.  The boys had to decorate a cake on the time era that the dens had adopted for the program.  The wolves had the midevil time period so we came up with this sword cake.  I always look for the easiest cake to make and this one was perfect for us.

Carlys creations

Carly decided that she needed to add something to my Zibbet shop so she made some earrings.  I think they are really cute and a very good price at only $3 a pair.  She is going to be quite the crafty girl.  She can already knit better than I can.
