This Boy of Mine is 12

My Boy turned 12 this month...where does the time go.

Unfortunately, I remembered everything for the party right down to the chocolate poker chips....but forgot the camera to take Pictures!

Lucky for me Alex is very understanding and he went out to the Party Palace...AKA: Alex's Aces In the Hole Casino, The School House and The Bee's Knees Canopy for shows...he posed for me.

Looks like his hand is not so good...hummm will he bluff or fold?

The remainder of the Orange Dream sickle Cake...It Said Alex is Aces and was made to look like a deck of cards. I made a crock pot full of Chili will bowls full of yummy sides to add.

Some of our favorite people came to share in the celebration, which was a rousing game of Poker and to wish my dear little man a HAPPY BIRTHDAY.


I LOVE YOU ALEX....YOU SO ROCK IN THOSE DICE GLASSES

Happy Birthday Sweet Girl

MY BABY TURNED 6 LOOK HOW SHE GROWS

LOOKING LIKE A SNOW BABBY

FEELING THE JOY OF THE EBB AND FLOW

TEACHING ME HOW TO CUT ONIONS WITHOUT CRYING

THE FLOWER FAIRY

PUCKER POWER

A SWEET PEA IN THE GARDEN

EVEN THE FAIRY LIGHT LOVES HER

Happy Birthday Sweet Boy
