Before October disappears, here is a glimpse into Nadine’s birthday! I made two horse cakes, which for me, is a feat! I rarely venture outside of the round, layered cake. I’m not very good at icing, and it didn’t look nearly as good as the one I saw online. The Happy Birthday banner was made from scraps in my cloth basket.
When Matt’s family arrived with Pop-Pop, he was a great sport as the boys pretended to be snipers.


Nadine loves animals! Granddaddy, Matt’s dad, sketched this beautiful picture of a horse! 
We’re thankful for our family and friends to share this special time of life with us. Nadine is enjoying being ten!

Oh my goodness! This is so crazy… how time flies. I miss talking and hanging out with this girl. I bet she is growing into quite the young woman. Happy Birthday Nadine!
