Stewart has been the first kid to do a lot of things around here.  Once again, he can claim to be the first one to wake up on a campsite on his birthday.

We arrived home, unpacked, and proceeded to invest in his celebration.  The guys had stopped at Walmart and Tab helped me make a lemon cake (and filling. and frosting.).

Nan and Nene joined us for a most excellent dinner not prepared in the great outdoors or on my knees in front of a campfire.

He was blessed with some gifts.
(And blessed us with this smile.)

He not only liked this, he all but placed an order for it while he was shopping with me one day at Walmart. 

Sisters shared homemade cards.  (Hanny asked if she could have hers back if he thought he’d just throw it out.)

I love this young man.

And the cake rocked, too.
