For Scouts they had a Father and Son Cake Decorating Contest. Kade knew just what he wanted to do for it. He baked the cake then began frosting the cake. Next he started cutting it to create a
"Jimmer Jersey"
It was looking Great, Until.....
It split down the middle!
The tears began to roll! We only had 45 mins till we had to leave. What to do... what to do? I grabbed my purse and Kade we ran to target. But, NO plain white cakes...
We found a cake that had blue with orange flowers on it so bought it ran home CAREFULLY pulled off the orange frosting and Kade began Decorating the cake.
Heath was Confident.. trying to convince Kade the cake was COOL... Kade Not so sure!
Kade walked out with the 1st Place Prize!
Perhaps it helped that BYU was playing that night or that our entire family got to vote for our favorite cake or that it was the COOLEST?

Either way, Kade was all SMILES!
Life is Not Always about Winning But it sure feels GOOD when you do!

Gotta love good ol' Dad and Mom making it seem like it should have always been that way. Perfect! Is Heath serving in the cub scouts? Good times!
Thompsons always seem to be able to pull things together no matter the tight time schedule. Kade you don't know how lucky you are to have your Mom and Dad willing to do anything to help you succeed. I thought your cake looked like a winner too. Kelly I miss you big time for some reason tonight. I didn't get near enough time with you or Heath or your kids. How did I let those few hours pass and not connect with everyone better? I got your dear card today. There you were thanking me and I haven't even gotten to my thank yous for all you did for us. Heath and you were so generous and kind to us. I love all seven of you. I miss you!
