Nathan's birthday celebration!

We went to Mimi and Gramps' house to celebrate Nathan's birthday!

Mimi, of course, made Nathan a very fun birthday cake! He LOVED his cake!

don't you love the hat! (Jay chose the theme of the cake for Nathan and my only request was that he be a friendly snake- I think she really pulled it off!)

he burst into tears when we lit the candles and started singing

don't worry, he recovered quickly...


and helped himself to quite a bit of yummy snake cake!


sweet big brother loving on the birthday boy!!


We headed to one of our favorite spots - The Memphis Children's Museum (it is a reciprocal membership with the McWane center) and it is so much fun! Here are a few pics of some of our favorite parts...

the boys' favorite part of the museum- the rescue vehicle section!



Abby's favorite part- the real-life grocery store!



loving him some firetruck fun!

Good to know about the Memphis childrens museum! Mimi does the best jobs on cakes! Does she have a cake business?

Great cake! And for some reason, Nathan looks so much older in these pics...and one where I think he looks like Abby in the face...haven't noticed that before. Glad ya'll had fun in Memphis!
