Abracadabra Hayden is 4

Four years ago I was blessed with such an adorable little baby boy. It is so hard to believe that my baby boy is now four. Hayden had a magical time celebrating his fourth birthday with all of his friends.

He loved the trampoline that Mommy and Daddy got him.


On Your Mark! Get Set! GO!!

And we have some causalities.

Water Balloon Toss game. The kids enjoyed throwing the balloons at each other instead.

Sitting "patiently" for the Magic Show to begin.

The Magic of Thom Wright. I tried to decorate Hayden's play area in the basement into a stage area for the Magic Show. Afterwards the kids enjoyed tearing down the streamers.

Look, nothing is in the coloring book.

OH MY GOODNESS the pages turned into colored drawings. It is MAGIC!

Hayden and Magician Thom each had one ball in their hands.

Magician Thom's ball disappeared.
Now Hayden has two balls in his hand. Still trying to figure this one out.

Hayden's Magician's Hat cake with Bunny Ears was baked my La Lola's in Lexington, KY. The cake was fabulous!

This was the other cake baked by La Lola's for the other guests.

The Birthday Boy!
Make a wish!
Hayden was blessed to have so many friends come to his party.

The Magician made each child a balloon hat or animal and he also gave each child their own magic wand.

Father's Day

For Father's Day we went camping at Levi Jackson State Park in London, KY. It was a really beautiful park with tons of hiking trails and nature all around. The kids and dad had a great weekend.

Watching Dad go down the big slide at the campground pool.

Hayden's Swim Lessons

This summer I enrolled Hayden into swimming lessons at Transylvania University here in Lexington. He did such a good job. I am planning on enrolling him again this Fall and Spring.





The first time he jumped off of the diving board he didn't hesitate one bit. I believe it is because he didn't know what to expect. The second time, not so much. He really wanted to do it but needed a little assistance from one of the other swim coaches.

Like dropping a lead ball into the water.

I thought he would never pop back up. He is lean, but solid as a rock. When he made it to the ladder he kept saying, "I was so brave."
