Safety Town

After a grueling week of learning, Caden is now a proud graduate of Safety Town. Before Caden went to safety town we had a couple of special talks. It took us a week to convince Caden that he shouldn't tell the fireman that Mom and Dad let him light fireworks and fires. Especially, that Grandpa Williams has let him throw a matches into a pile of leaves. I think it worked because I haven't been reprimanded by a fireman yet.

Calling all Super Heros!

Caden just celebrated his 5th birthday with six of his friends. Heidi made all of them capes that they then decorated to represent their favorite super hero. He had everyone from Lavaman to Aquaman join in on the fun.

Heidi's side note: Every year I tell myself I will tone it down and make the party easier for me. I won't invite so many kids, I won't sew outfits to fit the theme, I won't kill myself planning so many games to keep the kids busy and lastly, I won't out do myself on food when I am feeding 5yr olds that can't tell the difference between a cake from scratch and one from a box. Well... I accomplished one of those things, I invited only six kids this year. I guess I just have too much of my mom in me. The goal for next year is a bowling party.

Cruising USA

Watch out all you drivers! Colton is now on the road. He really is enjoying his car now that his brother is finally letting him (For the first few days after we found this find at a local garage sale, Caden thought it looked like fun - even though he didn't fit very well). Next up... walking?
