i scream you scream

for his family birthday, carson chose to go to this little ice cream shop downtown and attempt the banana split challenge. it is made with eight large scoops of ice cream, two bananas and mounds of candy, syrup, fruit and whipped cream. the rule is you have to finish it alone in 15 minutes.



he started strong.


got very cold and had the shivers.



moved outside and warmed up, 5 minutes left.



finished with 1/2 scoop left and the bananas.


gagged, paused and decided he was done.


i was in shock at the amount of sugar that boy put away. he had to sit for a minute, but then we went to a playground and he ran and ran, like nothing had happened. amazing.

it did tucker maggie out - this is a glimpse at how sugary sweet she was on the way home.

Happy Birthday Carson!

So this year Carson invited ALL his BFF's to his birthday party.
I got called into work.
Jeff ran the party.
This is a snippet of the night.
