Double Digits

And more celebrating!

Clayton turned the big 10 today.  

It was the perfect reason to remove our saggy, but very crisp(or petrified)  Christmas tree,
 put away the lights, and break out the party decorations!

I remember the night Clayton joined our family.  It seems we've never been without him,
and I told him it would be nice if he'd stick around for a long time to come :-)

Mellow, funny, cheerful, kind, generous, gentle, and fun
 - that's our Clayton Praise.

His request was for a birthday celebration with "just us", and also...
Lemon Meringue pie!

Here's his day in pictures.

Happy Birthday Buddy!!!

We love you.
