So another year, another birthday for my big boy Blake. Where did 9 years go??? Someone told me once they turn 9, that is half way until they move out of the house...tear! Don't tell me that!!! I can't even imagine that! I remember the minute I started having contractions. I was so excited. 13 hours later, my life changed 100 percent for the better. I love you Blakie! You will always be my little boy. You amaze me every day!!! I am so proud of you! Well, we had to celebrate in a big way. Blake got to pick a few friends to go to Great Wolf Lodge for a sleepover. If you haven't ever been there, it is soooo cool. Such a great place for kids. It has a HUGE water park inside. Since he started football again for the fall, we kinda did a football theme, and I made the cake! I know, "little miss not so Suzy Homemaker" actually made the cake!
