For Elijah's birthday dinner, he opted for a cereal bar.
The reaction to that menu was lukewarm to say the least, but nonetheless, that is what we ate.
I felt a little better when Julie reminded me that Lindsey requested a cereal bar at her farewell party.
To make this day truly special, Elijah decided to look as awesome as possible in every picture.
Awesome...
more awesome,
and awesome again.
See what I mean?
Not even Bethany could whip him into shape.
(super hard to believe he is turning 16, right?)
His enthusiasm for picture taking spread like wildfire.
Yup,
and yup.
Goodness gracious!
But despite the lack of photogenicness (my word totally)...it's always a great thing to be together and celebrate each other.
Happy almost Birthday Elijah.
Love ya tons.
