Cy Is S E V E N T E E N

"Mom, do you want to see the cutest picture ever?" 
Cy and Emma 👆at the drive-in (Toy Story 4)

The three of us at Cy's basketball tournament. Love MK for always trying to be there. Rob's game face 😂


A blast from the past: L. Rom, Cy, Will, Taylor, Kobe

So cute to hang out with his littlest cousin

He's in love 😂

Dinner at Chilis for Cy's last night as a 16-year-old. All the kids get the Triple Dipper with 1. wings 2. wings 3. wings

At midnight, Cam ran down to the basement and sung the happy birthday song to Cy and all his friends before they left for Betos to celebrate.

Emma picked him up first thing in the morning and took him to Pancake House.

Lunch was on Trent and Skyler at Buffalo Wild Wings while I watched Lucy.

A bunch of his lady friends wished him a "Happy Birthday, cute boy!" which made his day right there.

Late afternoon Paddle-boarding and rafting at LP pond with M&M, Cam, and Trent while Rob and I attended our final 3-hour foster care training class.

After the pond, they all went for dinner at Cafe Rio. 

Food = Cy's love language 😉

Before the kids left for the pond, I asked Cy when he wanted to open gifts... 

"I forgot! I even get gifts today!"

 At 9:45 p.m. he opened his presents

So happy to get Air Pods (again) since he'd dropped one in a parking lot a few months ago and found it right after a tire did.
