Carter's 8th Birthday Bash

Carter Michael Noftle has been waiting to turn 8 for FOUR long years.  This is for two reasons, 1-he wants to be baptised, 2-he has wanted a lighter since he was four, and for unknown reasons I told him when he was four that he could have one when he turned 8 and was a cub scout (no idea why I thought it would be a good idea for an 8 year old boy to have a lighter).

He had a superhero themed party--hero training.

Sammi was thrilled with her silly string hairdo.

Bailey instructing her team to silly string the heck out of Sammi's team.

Happy birthday Carter/Thor

Birthday morning

The long desired lighter that he can not light without adult help!!! HEHEHEHE

The joy---four years in the waiting makes it so sweet!

Carter is:

1.  Swaggy in his dress and attitude

2.  So smart in school-especially loves math

3.  So excited to be a cub scout--when I asked him why he said they always throw a football around before and after scouts and the "build stuff"

4. Loves to be held and hugged and NOT kissed by his Mommy

5.  Is very kind, can't stand to see one of his friends upset or one of his cousins crying for something

6.  Says the sweetest prayers ever

7.  Has bonded completely with Grandpa Kent, a mutual love of skylanders was the start, now they are true buddies

8.  Doesn't like to hold still--EVER

We love you Carter!!!
