Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us, Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen. Eph 3:20, 21

National Eat Dessert First Month

Just in case you hadn't heard...
 
August is National Eat Dessert First Month, so feel free to eat your birthday cake before your dinner. :)
(or so says Discovercard.com) 

Just might do that! 

I never did do a post on my time at home in IL...maybe I'll get to it one day or little by little, but this statement reminded me of some pictures I have of a very special birthday boy that I got to celebrate with while I was home. We were celebrating both of our birthdays a bit early, but we had to take advantage of the fact that I was home and because Levi just LOVES birthdays and all that goes with them. 

Here are some pictures... Enjoy! :)

A party isn't complete without party hats! :)

 
Addie and I 

Opening presents
 
 
Nice... (Levi's present not mine!)  :)


 Helping me open my presents.


First Spanish Word Book (Levi's present from Aunt Carissa--Gotta start 'em young!)

 Time for the traditional get-your-face-smashed-in-your-cake experience!
(I even got to celebrate with Lightening McQueen plates! Life gets more exciting with age I think! ;) )

 Levi helping me out a little! ;)

A frosting kiss

 Levi's turn

I think this was his first "mordida" (little bite). I think he missed his mouth! :)
 Birthday buddies

 
Now time to eat it! :)
Yumm!

Make a joyful noise unto the LORD, all ye lands.
 Serve the LORD with gladness: come before his presence with singing.
 Know ye that the LORD he is God: it is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture.
 Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name.
 For the LORD is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truth endureth to all generations.
Psalm 100
