In Florida on his actual birthday he wanted crepes for breakfast, and since we weren't doing another cake, he got candles in his crepes :)
We also went out for hamburgers and ice cream cones. As it worked out one of his friends was having a birthday party on his birthday, so he got in all the friend partying as well.
Sawyer is a joy to have in our family. He's a bright boy that amazes us and adds so much joy to our lives. Happy Birthday Saw, we love you!

Family outing for hamburgers and ice cream cones.
We had a cookout with tin foil dinners. He loves fire. (I'm in trouble.) I also made my first 'fancy' birthday cake. It was actually easy and fun, and Sawyer LOVED it. Hard to go wrong with a construction cake where it's part of the plan to crumble up the cake.
Colorado Celebration:
Fire!
Happy Sawyer getting ready for his cookout.
Cute Cousins (and Aunt)
Baba & Cole snuggles

Excuse me Sawyer? I guess we need to go into more detail when it is (or isn't) ok to relieve yourself outside.
Flying high with papa. Jack loves his cowboy boots and it's his choice of footwear.
Dido on hot dog roasting duty.
Grandma got all the supplies I needed for the cake so my job was easy. Thanks Grandma!
Sawyer had three requirements for his cake: equipment, brown, and green. Check, check, check. Thanks for taking it easy on mom ;)
He was extremely pleased with his cake!
Tea Party with the cousins.
So much fun when it's legal to play with your food!

So many people love you Sawyer!
Happy Birthday Big Guy!
