Happy Birdday

One of Braden's favorite activities to do with Papa is feed the birds up at their cabin. Papa is the bird expert of the family. He has joked that he keeps all bird feeder companies in business. Soooo....when Braden was asked what he wanted to get Papa for his birthday, he said he really wanted to get Papa a bird. What's up with Braden wanting to get animals as birthday gifts?! (I received a live mouse for my birthday). Matt caught a bird with his bare hands, with the help of Braden of course. A quick trip to Petco for a bird cage and bam...a perfect birthday gift for Papa!

Who looks more excited about the sparrow?! We did let the bird go free....hope there's a market for slightly used birdcages on eBay.
Just in case Papa didn't like the live bird, Braden picked out a flying bird that he and Papa could shoot with a laser gun.
Braden guessed Papa was turning 10 this year. He wasn't positive, so he put 24 candles on the cake just in case he was off by a few years.
Braden loves birthdays...anyone's birthday! Happy birthday Papa!
