Austin is 16!

Tuesday was Austin's 16th birthday. We had GaGa, GaGa2, and PopPop (as Camden is now calling Papaw) over for dinner. Austin's request is always shrimp, so we had a delicious (if I do say so myself) garlic butter shrimp pasta, broccoli, and garlic bread. We topped it off with the most decedant, incredible cake I have ever made. It was a four-layer chocolate cake with chocolate chips, cream cheese frosting, and topped with reese cups. YUM!

He got money from both sets of grandparents (always a big hit!).

We gave him a really nice paintball gun & kit. He and Kevin have a couple of excursions planned this summer and he needed a good gun.

We went outside and shot a few rounds across the yard toward a box and a tree.

Even GaGa wanted to give it a try.

It was a fun celebration.
