My big boy turned 7 today. What a champ. Then and now. Aw my baby! ❤❤❤ I made him this fairly dodgy monster truck cake that I was almost embarrassed of, until Hubs asked me “Does Chance like it?” He. Loved it. We had a little party for him Friday night over at the K-mans…

I just got tired of saying no; of not being fun; tired of taking everything so seriously. So this afternoon I said yes to ice cream and yes to…
