My Son's 7th birthday

Despite some early run ins with Murphy's law, the day was a success. My son had a great day and birthday!

It is hard for me to really believe he is 7 years old. Its seems like just yesterday, I was driving extremely slow taking him home from the hospital for the first time.

He is on track break at the moment, but is attending 1st grade. He growing so much each day, I'm so proud of him. he trys his best to handle what has been thrown at him at such a young age.

We had his birthday dinner at CiCi's Pizza Buffet. (see picture at left) it one of his favorite place to eat. They have all you can eat salad, soup, pasta, pizza, and desserts. It is not gourmet, but for the price, it's a deal.

My children like most, love pizza. I also think part of the appeal is that on the TVs they have cartoon network, and Fox News Channel. Clearly the people running it are big into fantasy. While the TVs are on closed caption, Classic 80's hits play over the speaker, the music is something I enjoy.

We head home after the meal for presents and cake !

My son's aunt and uncle from Florida gave him a Leapster L-Max, and a Wall -e game to play on it. Grandpa Johnson had the hit of the evening, with a set of 5 Transformers. I gave him a Jeff Gordon car, a Transformer, and a Tonka Car Carrier with 3 cars. His sister gave him a few little Transformers. Other family members have sent or will be sending something soon.

A few family members called through out the day. My son also asked if he could call a few people as well.

My son picked out and got a Midnight Delight cake by Stone Cold Creamery. It is devil's food cake with layers of chocolate ice cream, with rich fudge gouache over it. it was so very good. He really loved it. There be enough for a few more desserts out of it.

Even with my son growing up so fast, tonight he still wanted a hug and so cuddle time with his dad. it was a quiet and special moment to end the day
