A Weekend to Remember

My Sport’s boy turned 7 on Saturday and like most birthdays we celebrated in many ways…

On Friday it was Liverpool cupcakes with classmates



Homemade apple pie for dinner’s dessert



We kicked-off Saturday with blueberry pancakes



Later Blake and his teammates would devour the coveted soccer b-day cake



Saturday afternoon Blake’s teammates arrived for the Liverpool/ Manchester United Play-off



Despite the grueling afternoon heat, Captain Torres (Blake) and Captain Ronaldo (good bud Craig) would lead the teams in various soccer endeavors….




Soccer Bowling



Skill Relays



Yellow Card Tag and Soccer Blocker



And a final play-off game left these guys utterly goofy



When the last candle was blown out



These All-Stars


Had an absolute ball!

Bay, I hope you know I’m your biggest fan!

Love you big boy!
