HaPpY BiRtHdaY to Chay Chay
Hard to believe that Chay is already 15 years old. He has grown up quite nicely. I really have to look up to him now....
How did this little boy....
become this young man????
It if weren't for the eyebrows, I wouldn't even recognize him as the same person.
He loves technology with his Iphone and Ipod but, he also really likes retro things like record players, "boom boxes", and polaroid cameras...and so that's what he got for a birthday cake.
(...weird that those things are "retro" because those were new when I was young)
The lightening of the torch took Chay by surprise.
Going...
Going....
Gone...
After we went out to eat, relaxed and then ate cake and ice cream, Chay asked Nicole to help him study for his Learner's Permit.
He wanted to get it on his birthday but because of time constraints, he agreed to go the next morning.
AND he PASSED!
(I need to get a picture of him with his permit....)
When we made a spontaneous trip to Picture Butte during the boys Spring Break, Grandma made the boys an early Birthday cake...a birthday cake from Grandma makes a birthday even more special!
Blade was so excited for Grandma to make him a cake - and she didn't disappoint! The only way it could have been better is if the boys could have eaten more cake before we left, and trust me, Chay can eat ice cream and cake all day long!
I know that when I was growing, it was a special day to wake up on my birthday and have a birthday cake waiting for me on the table...and every year there was one waiting for me until I left for University. And then my first year at BYU I was amazed when on my birthday, there was a cake delivered to my door!
Well, Chay has been driving around. First around "This is the Place Monument" after hours, then around the driving course at Highland High, and then around the University and the Avenues.
Dave took Chay driving around the City...I'm not ready for that yet! Chay was even alittle surprised when Dave handed him the keys. Chay's words to me when he got home, "that was scary..."

Congratulations to Chay on getting his Learners the first try. Its scry until you get a lot of practice. As long as he is always careful and doesn,t drive fast.
Theres been so many accidents all over this past while.
Happy Birthday to Chay. I am proud of him for getting his learners already - but I think I feel like him, it is a little scary!
Grandma's cakes are the best!! you are sure lucky to always have them!
Wow Chay, congratulations on your birthday/permit. Belated birthday to Blade too. I'm thinking the same as Lana...you do have one of the best grandmas in the world along with the cakes. Hope you have a wonderful 15th year. You are very lucky as you also have the best parents in the world too! Love AK
HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHAY! (That birthday cake is amazing!.and congrats on getting your learners! You are so brave.
it was so great to see you all during spring break... Though, I'm a little sad that we missed out on the cake.
