birthday! eleven!

Today, K turned eleven.  I now officially have a tween.  I'm pretty much Super Lucky to be mom to such an incredible boy. :D On Saturday, we celebrated with family.

Static!

Gifts:

From me, a book I made him -

Fake money from his auntie. :D

Real stuff too!

Robot creature from us -

Money from Ouma & Oupa -

Old coins & money from Nonna & Poppi -

(He received money quite a bit to honor his wish to go antiquing, wheee!)

Then K handed out goodie bags (tattoos & horns) while I prepped food.  We had gf cinnamon rolls & coconut milk ice cream -

Then!  Time for the balloon release!

A close-up from the last -

Back inside for silly photos -

And serious ones too -

Good day. :)
