Jake's Birthday Bash......


My Boy..... he turned 11 on Friday.... I just keep thinking "How in the world do I have an 11 year old pre-teen?!?!!".....


He had a "camping" birthday party..... it was great fun.... just a few boys invited from school, his baseball team and family... 6 boys in all and let me tell you that is enough when you are combining boys, a campfire and a sleepover!!


Don't ya like my cake?? Complete with stars and a campfire and camp flag??!! For someone who is NOT very creative... I was pretty proud of myself!!


I kept saying to Todd "At what age do they actually sit and watch the birthday boy open up presents instead of crowding around and "helping" to open the presents!" Clearly... it's not at 10 or 11 years old!

Our backyard camp! I was happy with how it turned out.... the boys roasted hot dogs, then made s'mores next an exciting game of Flashlight tag followed by hanging out in the tent telling some awesome ghost stories.....

More pic's to come.... I could only upload x4 pics from picasa....so think of it like the next chapter in the book!

Really? 11? Didn't I start watching him when he was just 4???? HAPPY BIRTHDAY JAKE!! The cake is awesomely cute and the whole party looked like a blast! Too bad I didn't know about it, I could have pretended to be the camp ranger coming around telling everyone it was quiet time. =) Again, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
