My Boy And His Bro's

a Pancake Cake

Tristen turns Eleven on Wednesday.  Holy Toledo.  Seriously.  How and when did eleven years pass by?  We held his birthday party last night.  He just wanted his two best friends and a night of fun. Ian, one of the boys, was performing with a band at the Oregon Zoo for Zoo lights and wouldn't have been able to join us till late, so instead we joined him and went to the Oregon Zoo to start the party.  Ian's mom told me that they were so grateful we changed our plans so Ian could come and that Ian had told Tristen thanks so much for rearranging and Tristen replied "Dude.  Of course.  You're my Bro."  Eleven.  Here we go!

[this darn Santa tried to escape us!  I chased him down and snapped a pic]

see Tristen's arm linked around the Bear's arm?  I swear to God, the bear moved.
And I screamed.  [for reals]
everyone looked, and then we got the heck out of the Zoo

Happy Birthday my boy. 

 I love you the Whole Wide World.  

And you loving me more, is NOT possible.
