and it was a very good birthday, too.
Hudson requested hotdogs and chips and soda for his birthday dinner (he has a bit of chocolate on his nose from sampling the frosting from his cake).
For months, whenever he was asked what he wanted for his birthday he always said, "a teddy bear." He got his wish.
He got two Berenstain Bears books - his favorite kind of book!
He wanted a chocolate cake. And I cannot tell you how thrilled he was to see me putting sprinkles on the cake.
5 candles for our new 5-year-old.
"For he's a jolly good felloooooow . . . " Libby cracks up when we sing that.
Libby's letting Hudson know which candle he still needs to blow out.
Yum, yum. Hudson picked out Neapolitan ice cream to go with his cake.
This is the best cake! Hershey's "Perfectly Chocolate" Chocolate Cake. I found this recipe a few years ago and it's become our choice of chocolate cake. Our other favorite cake: Humming Bird Cake with cream cheese frosting. Hmmm, maybe I'll make that for my birthday.
Libby thinks it's good.
Hudson's Grandma Hawkins made this cowboy outfit for him. We've had a cowboy wanderin' around these parts ever since.
Hudson said he had the "best birthday ever"!
