Amazing. 8 Years. And we decided to surprise him with a cake tomorrow. Usually he gets to pick the ‘theme’. This year… ok, I forgot to ask him. Hence the following got made. Step 1:
Next… the details:
Ok, from the red side:
and the white side:
For those not into Pokemon, the monkey looking ones are actually evolutions of one another. Starting with Chimchar, which evolves into Monferno, that becomes Infernape. The odd ball is a legendary pokemon called Palkia. The red and white thing in the middle is a pokeball which holds the pokemon for ease of traveling.
I still can’t believe it has been 8 years. I was looking at my past blog posts and was shocked at how much he has changed. Seems I have a problem looking at just that post… so scroll down and look at the one where he turns five! Life is always on the move. Let’s hope this is even a better year than all the others.

It was an interesting trip. It went from Heaven to Hell in a matter of hours. Over and over and over again. One example is the great time the boys had jumping into the creek with their dad and cousins. Particularly after Dad told them some stories about it when he was a kid. The oldest went first (click to enlarge):
Next the youngest:
Then everyone started taking turns. Finally the two went together:
And I just couldn’t resist posting this one because it was really funny:
Yet just a short time after that… the oldest was running a fever. Did I mention there was no air conditioning in the place and it was HOT HOT HOT in Jersey?
We had a blast but there were definitely some tough times. More of the fun times to be posted as the week progresses.
