Truman Turns Seven

Seven is one of those, not very extraordinary birthdays, you know.  Truman's was so much so that I almost forgot it.  Don't worry I figured it out.
 We invited grandparents to come and celebrate, and both sets were able to make it.  I even got balloons, which was quite a feat apparently there is a shortage of helium.  Found that out after I went to two different stores.  Next time I think I will just call.
 Here is the cake.  Okay, let's just get it out of the way, it looks....well bad I know.  Here is the thing I tried to frost it the way my cousin (who is like a professional) told me she does it.  She doesn't freeze it.  Long story short there is a defendant crumb layer.  They other thing is I let Truman do the mouth,  I don't think it looks too bad all things considered. 
 Here is the birthday boy.  He gets so excited he can't hardly stand it.
 Yeah, I kind of forgot the candles so we lit matched.  It didn't work so hot,(not pun intended) but what do you do.  I mean besides actually going out and buying candles like a normal person would.
 So he blew out the matches.
 This is just a cute picture I had to put in.
 Truman did get a lot of presents and that is what is important, right.
 Lots and lots of legos.  They are his all time favorite.
This is the real birthday boy, he is crazy but we love him!

Is there a worldwide shortage of Helium.. or just Twin?

I LOVE that you lit matches instead of candles. Classic.

Truman will only remember he got to decorate the mouth... and that he scored.

For some reason I have not been able to post on here but I am going to try it one more time and start from here and hopefully it will work this time. We enjoyed coming to Twin for Truman's birthday. It was a fun time. Thanks for the dinner and the fun times. I thought Truman's cake was great and the fact that you let him help with the decorating was even more special!
