Birthdays & Celebrations

It is certainly a good thing we've been active this summer. There have been many reasons to bake, celebrate, eat cupcakes, & indulge. We celebrated Father's Day & Papa's birthday at Grandma Burnette's house in good old fashioned style with a carmel apple pie. Grandma also made a pecan pie. Benjamin declared that 'pie is the best'...following in the steps of Papa & Daddy. Both would choose pie over cake, on most days at least  Nana's birthday was celebrated over the span of a few days...cupakes from Gigi's (they serve gluten free ones!!!) before swimming one evening. I made & served a White Chocolate Rasberry Cheesecake (from Our Best Bites) at Tim & Nancy's with cousins.  Yes, we are totally full of sweetness now.     





Favorite things about our favorite people...
Papa...there is only 1 Papa, oh the boys love him.  He plays sharks & minnows with them in the pool, races with them, lets them play in this truck, and never loses patience with them when they want to be his little helpers during projects. 

Nana...she is so good with the boys.  She is a great book reader, moth & caterpillar fnder, and game expert with the boys...teaching Benjamin how to play checkers, & never too tired to play a quick game of hide & seek with the boys.  I'm so thankful the boys love, love, love their grandparents. They have a very special bond.
