There is nothing so great as a "special shapes" cake on your birthday. Joy and the kids made me a family camping tent this year for my birthday (38th! yuck!). I had to ask my brother Carter how old we are this year.
(Joy here- there is always some thought and reason, and hopefully some creativity, put into the cakes. We got a new family tent this spring. And we have used it and loved it. Between family camping and camping with the scouts Jason has camped 7 of the last 13 weekends plus some week days. We have one more family camping trip coming up in two weeks. Thus the tent cake- modeled after our 9 person tent. Thanks Dad for the adventures!!! Oh and one more disclaimer, that poor cake was slapped together in about 5 min. We had just gotten home from our spin training for our Triathlon and friends were coming over. A sad excuse for the amount of time I THOUGHT about the cake.)
Later this month the kids went off to school yet again! This is Allie's last year at John Baker Elementary. She's the big girl on campus as a 5th grader. Her teacher is Mr. Findell, the only male teacher at the school.
Here's our handsome 3rd grader. His teacher is Ms. Walker this year.
And last but not least our 1st grader Wesley. His teacher is Ms. Day who he says is very pretty. I doubt that tucked shirt lasted too long...

I'm with mom, I was thinking wow, Allie is that old....?
Time to come camp in our backyard. Hopefully we close tomorrow (and we will have a guest room and a rec room available for sleeping inside.) :) it needs work... When can you come and help out?
What's this? Spin class? Tri? I may have a proposition for ya'll next summer if you are interested and a bunch of cards fall into place! Ever heard of Saints to Sinners ....
