Caden's 8th Birthday!

This is the 4th year of Caden taking a hunting trip with Dad on his birthday. They took off on a long hike today to look for animals to shoot. No shots, not even any rabbit tracks... which was a bummer because Caden got his own gun for Christmas to rabbit and squirrel hunt. He is pretty anxious to shoot something that I can put into the crockpot! He says he is taking his whole class rabbit or squirrel to eat on Monday if he shoots something. This is a big privilege to start gun hunting with Dad!

Last night we had a family party. We had a houseful! REALLY a house FULL-- 30 people.
This cake was made by Grandma Karla--it tasted so yummy and looks awesome!

We are so proud of our little guy! It is hard to believe how fast the last 8 years have gone. He is so much fun and good with his sisters and even still gives his mom kisses in public! He loves to hunt, wrestle, kick a football around, watch Star Wars, wear his Davis County sweatshirt, take things apart and put things together, watch the Packers play or the Panthers, EAT...he loves to EAT!! We look forward to watching him grow in 2010!
