Here is a piece I did as inspired by this hilarious pig game that Cole got as one of his gifts....and seeing that the theme on MMM this week is "play things" I thought this piece would be perfect!!! and we played all weekend with our little munchkin who just turned 4!!!!
We celebrated three days for Cole's birthday....and in three different places....The Day started off at home...with a photo of Cole with the birthday bear I bought him when he was born...and some fun decorating by Mommy....swimming and more fun...and of course a cupcake too...here he is waking up with his Birthday bear....
First party was at my parents place...it was so much fun!!! Here he is with his Grandmother and Grandfather...my amazing parents!!!
second stop....the cottage in Huntsville...more fun and more cake...but this time Cole shared it with Daddy...as it is his Birthday on the 20th
and the festivities ended at our home.....with one of my fun huge cupcake cakes...and family!!! who could ask for anything more....
Make a wish!!!!
as I was cleaning up after the mini party today at our place...Cole said....out of the blue....
I love you Mommy....
and my heart melted and I realized just how blessed I am to be his Mom...

Cole is a very fortunate little boy to have you as his Mommy, Diana...such a beautiful birthday all made so special for him and his daddy. Your portrait of him is absolutely awesome, you could not have made it any lovelier, it is excellent, right down to his lovely smile. Great artwork as always. Happy birthday to the Birthday Boys! Hugs, Gayle.
So so lovely.
Fantastic work and so lovely photo´s from your darling boy. Thanks for sharing.
looks like a fun birthday! love the cupcake toppers and how you altered the pic of your son - very clever! thanks for sharing his special day with us!

What a wonderful post Diana!! Happy birthday to Cole and Brad too... your portrait of him is lovely - especially his super smile! What a wonderful family you have - and I have never seen such enormous cupcakes!
Beautiful entry Diana! You did a wonderful portrait if Cole!! and I love his cake!! you are so creative!

What a lovely share Diana, it is almost as good as being there. I love all your special touches and how you create such wonderful memories for Cole (such a cutie).
Diana, your painting so gorgeous, And the birthday parties, all of them, sound like so much fun. This theme of playing was really right up your alley. Your Cole seems very special. I think 4 is one of the best ages, still young enough to be Mommy's little man and yet old enough to do things that constantly amaze parents. What a blessing he is! And what a blessing your post was! It was a super way to begin the week.
oh what a wonderful party and art!
please give hug 4 big birthday hugs from us!

Awww, I wish I had people spoiling me to bits like that when I was a kid! I would've been a very, very happy kid...hence the look of incredible bliss on your gorgeous boy's face! Hahahaa...
Anyway, thanks for stopping by my place, Diana. I always love it when you do. :))
