happy birthday, Luke!

Our little big man turned 4! He is such a fun and spunky little guy, who brings a ton of love and laughs to our life. I feel very blessed to be the Mom of a boy with such a special spirit.

The things I love most about Luke:

1. His enthusiasm for life
2. He is very sweet and thoughtful
3. And very tenacious (you never know which one you will get sweet or tenacious, but he is definitely both)
4. He does everything 100%. Good or bad, it is all or nothing.

















We went to Medford's annual Touch-a-Truck show. Luke got to sit inside 
of construction trucks and honk their horn, as well as shoot water from a fire hose. 
We also saw a rescue helicopter and ambulance. We went to Medford's annual Touch-a-Truck show. Luke got to sit inside of construction trucks and honk their horn, as well as shoot water from a fire hose. We also saw a rescue helicopter and ambulance. 






 Makenna and Luke rode in a barrel being pulled by a tractor, 
which was also a lot of fun. We all enjoyed the day.




We could not have had better timing, this little birthday boy thought
this was the most magical day ever.  And I agree, I love watching magic
happen for my kids.  Luke had so much fun sitting in this huge truck, he felt
like he was on top of the world way up there.






This year, for the first year ever...I made a home made theme cake. I know it 

is not much to look at, but it was fun for Makenna and I to decorate. We made 
a race track with Hotwheel cars on it and a Goodwheel Blimp on the grass inside 
of the track. Makenna took charge of the candles and turned them into racing flags.
We had fun together making it!











Ben found this small Nike compression shirt in a tiny size 
and picked it up for Luke's birthday. Luke dubbed it his 
strong man shirt. It is so cute! He is sure he gets stronger 
when it is on, and he just might be right.


Luke got a soccer ball, a small helicopter, and Superman pj's 
(though he is convinced it is a costume).  He spent the remainder 
of the evening running around (read: flying) through the house. Oh, to be 4!
