Birthday Boy!

After Jackson's nap, we headed down to Bladenboro for some more birthday fun. He was so excited to see the balloons Nana had tied to the picnic table for him. And of course he was very excited to see another present! There is no question that he gets that part! But not only does he want to open the present, he wants you to open the present...as in, he wants everything out of the box right away! And he has no patience for packaging!

Nana had a great birthday dinner waiting for him, with lots of summer goodness...potatoes, squash, deviled eggs, cole slaw and some of Ziggy's BBQ. Dinner was followed by Jackson's favorite...cupcakes! Look at him trying to blow out the candles... Too cute!



"Seriously Mommy, I'm trying to eat my cupcake. No pictures, please."

After dinner and cupcakes we headed back outside for a spectacular, daylight fireworks show! These fireworks were a gift to us in the hospital from Don and Jen right after Jackson was born. Since Jackson is fast asleep by the time darkness falls in July, we decided to go ahead and light them up before he went to bed.

Here are Nana and him taking them all in. Pa-Jack was there to provide all the "Oh" and Ah's".


"WOW!"

"Yay!"
