Carson's 4!

On Carson's actual birthday, we took a trip to Chuck E. Cheese with his best bud Corinne.  They had a ball running around playing games, and mom showed her gambling side --  winning some tickets so they could pick some prizes to take home!  We also had an Egypt themed party at home and all of Carson's friends came over to celebrate.  Grandma Connie and mom (grandma did the hard part) made a pyramid cake, we made some crafts, and Carson got lots of nice gifts from his friends; including the book that started the whole Egypt obsession...Ten Little Mummies (which we no longer have to check out from the library.)  Thank you to everyone for making it such a special day for Carson!

Exploring Caves















We had a great time exploring the caves near San Antonio just before Carson's birthday.  He thought it was quite an "adventure," climbing down and down into the caves and seeing all the neat formations.  Afterwards we had a picnic lunch and found fossils and other treasures in the sluice box.  Fun day!
