Waking up Eight

I always ask the kids what they'd like for their special birthday breakfast and Shaun wanted cinnamon rolls. Well, I went to the grocery store to buy the ingredients late at night and walked past the bakery. They had a huge box of about 20 different day old pastries for $1.99. Besides donuts, bear claws, sticky buns, it also had several cinnamon rolls. SCORE!!! I forgot all about buying the ingredients and slaving in the kitchen and grabbed the box of day olds. I put them in a glass cake holder and Shaun thought it was the best breakfast ever :) Combine the day olds with the leftover balloons from a friends pump-it-up birthday party and Shaun was in birthday heaven. I love this boy! He's so easy to please.



The first thing Shaun got for his birthday was a big hug from his sister.


He perked up with an enthusiastic scream when Shane showed him where his birthday surprise was hiding. He looks great on his new "turtle green" bike. He looked like a giant on his old creekity one! Thanks grandma.
