I cannot believe that our boy turned FOUR on July 16th! We are so blessed to watch our little man grow into a funny, loving, extremely loyal friend and son. He starts asking about his next birthday by about November every year so once July comes around I am READY to tell him that his birthday is finally here this month. Brayden lives for his birthday party and although I may go a bit over the top making each detail, he literally notices and cherishes every little thing I make and do, remembering it forever. Brayden loves his friends more than anything in the world and is so lucky to be surrounded by so many great kids to grow up and share life with. Brayden was all about having an Iron Man birthday party this year! Enjoy the pics (a bit overload so that the grandparents can see everything)!

We did a Superhero Training Course activity, and each of the kids got a card with five activities on it to complete in order to become an official member of the Avengers! These were the activities:
- Mighty Muscles - Lift weight 5 times.
- Brick Smash – Smash through the bricks.
- Tunnel Crawl – Crawl through the tube.
- Sword Play – Hit your opponent’s sword 10 times.
- Lava Pit – Walk across the Lava Pit to rescue the baby and then walk back with the baby without falling.
