We started the day off with a big stack of chocolate chip pancakes with sprinkles on top.
He got to pick one present from his present pile to open before school. . . big decisions!

After school his friend Brennan was over to deliver this fabulously fun guitar. . . Miles was in heaven!

That night we went to Olive Garden with Lise and Mike to celebrate. Miles LOVES the breadsticks there. . . once he asked the server if he could have the recipe.
Afterwards we opened the rest of his gifts and had cupcakes. And yes. . . that is a #5 candle perched atop his cupcake. Unfortunately, I used my last candle for breakfast pancakes and could only find this one. Miles didn't care one bit. . . because that's just the way he rolls.

Love this 7 year old who keeps me on my toes each and every day and stretches me farther than I thought I could stretch. He also shows me how to love and accept, how to forgive, how to show true joy, how to properly entertain a 1 year old, how to make people feel important, how to make a good, quality mess, and how to live life to the fullest. I can't imagine how boring life would be without him around!

Look how dark his hair is! And that grin with his stack of presents- totally how we all should live!!!
The pictures of Miles with his hair spiked and his birthday presents is priceless. What a sweet kid!
I love that Miles always has a grin on his face! What a great quality.
