happy birthday, dayton!

The first part of September is a very busy time of the year for me. 
The new school year begins.  
( I teach first grade.)  
Sunday School begins,
(I'm the Sunday School Superintendent.)

And my grandson, Dayton celebrates his birthday!

This year he turned 4 on September 3rd !
 The theme of this year's party was



I helped his mom by carving a
watermelon shark...

                                                  and making "sushi" appetizers...(not that tasty, but cute!)

 Sponge Bob and Nemo 
( Dayton's two Grandpas)
made an appearance!

 
And the birthday boy gave it all he had to blow out his candles! ;) 

{Next year somebody remind me that buttercream frosting
melts on the way to the party 
when it's early September and the temperature is 80 degrees !!}

Happy Birthday, sweet boy!
I love you all to pieces!

smooch, smooch!

  11. Choosing the right amount of home owner coverage,Play Bazaar requires lots of consideration. Keep in mind that the policy's goal is not to pay off your mortgage in case of a disaster, but to pay for fixing the damages. Choose an amount that comfortably covers the complete rebuilding of your house, without you having to add too much from your cash reserve.Satta King
