Happy Birthday!

It was this little guys birthday yesterday.  He is our first grandchild and has a special place in our hearts!  He is a great kid who is thoughtful, fun, active....did I say active? He gave his life to Jesus in August of this year and we are so proud of him.  He does like his brownies, but also eats his veggies and shrimps with just as much enthusiasm! Happy 11th Birthday, Caden!  We love you!!!
