The rest of Carter's Birthday

A few days before Carter's actual birthday he kept making "parties" which means that he kept putting all kinds of stuff in a circle and then asking Scott or me to come and have a party. This is a card he made for a party with Scott. You may notice his new camera smile! Licking the beaters (if only the mixer had 4 so that each kid could have 1)and singing. 4 years old is the perfect age for blowing out the candles and so we lit the candles 10-20 times over 3 days and sang. Hey, whatever keeps my boy happy! He wanted a cake like one that I made a year or two ago with 4 wheelers on it. Allie started digging through the toys to find the 4 wheelers and found a bunch of stuff that she thought would look great on the cake. So with the kids all helping we came up with this cake. Not a moment of glory for my cake-baking days, but we all had fun. Notice there isn't even one 4-wheeler.
