Austin turned four!

We celebrated Austin's 4th birthday this evening.  I made our favorite meal - Sazon chicken with rice and beans.  Lori made a chocolate chip zucchini cake, and according to Austin's wishes, turned it into a blue snowman!  As we ate, Anthony had a slide show of Austin's first day running on the computer.  Oh, we have SUCH fond memories of that day.  Of course, Austin was not nearly as impressed with those precious pictures as we adults were!

Here's a collage I posted on Facebook this morning.

He is totally in love with anything to do with Thomas the Train, so that was the birthday theme, even a big Thomas balloon!



No Thomas cake, though.  Here's Lori finishing up that blue snowman cake!





I gave him Harold the Helicopter.

No pictures of Anthony or me.  We were the photographers!

After the warmish weekend our snow cover had disappeared, but on Tuesday night we got a brand new coat.  The trees were so beautiful on Wednesday.  I took these pictures right out the window here at my computer.

 
My mountain is also white again.

I just can't believe he's 4. I remember his birth well, and following along on Anthony's blog afterward. He is such a blessing!
No snow here, but it's coming next week along with some very cold temps.
