Alex's birthday

Wow baby! Another year had zipped past and Alex turned seven. We never thought we would see seven years with this sweet boy. It is unreal to think that he has endured so much but continues to push on. He is such a wonderful part of our family! 

Sunday we celebrated April birthdays on the Clawson side. Uncle Chaison, Jenivee and Alex are our April birthdays. After church we went to the cemetery to send Jenivee some birthday balloons. Chais made this gorgeous headstone. It was decorated so cute! We wrote birthday notes to her and sent them up to heaven. 

Presents, egg hunts, visiting, and playing with cousins came next at grandma and papas' house. We love to be together with family. 

On his actual birthday Alex got to go out to lunch with dad at Chick-Fil-A. He was surprised by his buddy Maddox who showed up with balloons. He played outside, had friends over, played IPod, played Wii and had an awesome day. That evening we went to grandma and papa Homers for dinner. He chose stroganoff.. Three helpings later he was stuffed! He opened presents while our tummies settled until we could have brownies... Mmmmmm. 

Gator got all kinds of rad gifts.. The girls wanted to get him one of everything. He is so happy with it all.. Our amazing home teachers even brought him a remote control car. He recieved an email  from GG Baum and today a card in the mail from GG&G Groesbeck. There is more love in transit, thank you everyone.
