Come a Boy, Leave a Superhero

Cade had his first friend birthday party this last week. He wanted a Superhero theme, so we did a Superhero training camp. I never knew planning a superhero birthday party would be so much fun, but I had such a fun time planning and getting everything ready for his party. It started with a Top Secret file that each boy got; that invited them to training camp. As they arrived they each got a cape and the training began. They learned about super strength, super vision, super speed, and always getting the target. It ended when a super villain hid the cupcakes and they had to put together a puzzle to find them before they got ruined. It is a good thing they found them in the dishwasher before I turned it on. They each went home with goody bags that included Super Punch, Incredible Hulk pills, and Spider man Rolls.

Happy Birthday Cade!!

Cade celebrated his 5th birthday last week (March 28). I can't believe that he is already 5. For his b-day this year he was all about superheroes. He got to celebrate 3 different times, with cupcakes at school, b-day cake he helped to make at Grandma and Grandpa Joneses house. Complete with green frosting, spots (m&ms) and superhero logos. He then got to have a superhero cake on his actual birthday.

At the age of 5 Cade likes dinosaurs, airplanes, rocket ships, superheroes, football and pretty much anything else that is considered to be a "boy" thing. No girl things for him. He is our little comedian and will often say things that will make us laugh, but if you talk about it later he gets embarrassed and tells you to stop talking about him. After going to see Ashlie do ballet he told us ballet was boring, but when he plays football for BYU he is going to make Ashlie come to watch him; because football is sooooooo much more fun than ballet. He is a sweet boy with LOTS of energy, and we LOVE him.
