Braxton's 8th Birthday!

Happy 8th Birthday Braxton! Braxton had a party at his school. He asked for his only favorite cake..pound cake that MaNa made for him.

Here is a picture of Braxton with his girlfriend Emily.

Aunt Linda, Aunt Deb, Cousin Maddie, Nana Susan and Mr. Chuckles gave the boys new scooters, a pogo stick and a new Djubi game for their birthday's.  Papa gave him a savings bond.

*Aunt Vonnette & Uncle Ed gave Braxton a Pop Bottle experiment kit with 79 fun projects.  The first one they secretly chose was the cork rocket blast off. I had just laid down for a nice afternoon nap but quickly arose when I heard the boys scampering in the kitchen and whispering what is baking soda & you get the vinegar or do you think wine would do better with all that alcohol? As many times as I heard Braxton read the instructions he never read the line...you will need a grown-up to help.  Thankfully, I am a light sleeper and all blasted off fine until 3 hours when it accidentally got launched again all over me and the inside of the car.
*Aunt Marilyn & Uncle Mike gave Braxton silly string and confetti flyer's which the boys chased and wrestled each other with.
*Grandaddy and MaNa gave Braxton money in which he is planning to add to his savings account.
*Mark & I took him to Birmingham to have some alone time withjust him and we went to see the movie Rango and ate at Chick-Fil-A.  Mark tried to get him to eat at Hooters but he replied "NO, my girlfriend asks me what all I do and would not like that."  I am still so proud of his answer and have thanked God for his tender heart.
