Maddox

Maddox had his Blue and Gold Banquet for cub scouts. They had a Mexican Fiesta theme. They all wore mustaches and hats. Maddox didn't like it on his lip so he wore it on his finger and then as a side burn. There was a taco salad bar for dinner, Awards, Skits and a Pinata.

There was also a cake.

I made this cake. The "salsa" was strawberries and bananas cut up with a strawberry glaze. Very Yummy. (The Chips were real chips.) The maracas and sombrero were made of rice crispy treats and fondant.

Pinata fun.

We also ended up in the ER one night. McKay was chasing Maddox through the house and he sliced his heal on one of our floor vents that had a corner sticking up. It was pretty deep and wasn't real pretty. So we took him to the ER to have it looked at. No stitches thankfully, just glued it back together.

And lastly he got a new blanket. This isn't any ordinary blanket. It is a weighted blanket. This thing weighs about 8 pounds. He LOVES it. He sleeps with it every night. Kids that have sensory issues like he does, having that extra weight helps him calm down and feel comfortable. It is very soft. One of my friends at church made it for him. We bought the fabric and the weights and she did the rest. I might have to make one for myself. It is really nice.
