R2D2 took the cake...literally!
















Ryan turned eight years old on July 3rd!  We can't believe he's as old as he is, can you believe it???  I've said this to everyone who will listen to me lately, that it seems as though it was yesterday we were scooping him up from the Baby Home (orphanage) and taking him home to the USA with us :)  Truly amazing!!!

Then, today we had his 8th Birthday Party at the bowling alley.  We asked Ryan specifically if he wanted to have his birthday at Sahara Sam's again (last year's bday party was held there) or at the bowling alley (somewhere new this year) and he chose the bowling alley.  Ryan was super excited that he not only had family/friends coming to his bday party but was also able to invite his classmates. 

As for R2D2 taking the cake, which was incredible in both taste and the fact that it was a 3dimensional version of R2D2, we had Adelaide's Bakery make the R2D2 cake and WOW!!! did they do a fabulous job! Ryan chose an excellent flavor of cake too, he selected a chocolate chip pound cake-Mmmmm it was delicious!!!  Ron and I were always obsessed with Cake Boss and the Ace of Cakes, maybe a bit toooooo much, subsequently in light of Ryan's recent health issues we opted to have a terrific cake made for Ryan's 8th Birthday Party b/c nothing compares to Ryan's smile when he saw R2D2 as a cake :)  Ryan is just as captivated with R2D2 as we are with Cake Boss and Ace of Cakes, so what better way to celebrate :)  But, seriously you be the judge and let us know if this R2D2 cake was as great as he looks?

Love & HUGS,
Jenny, Ron, Ryan, & Lukey :)
