birthday party

 

we had a small party for finn this year.... family and some of finn's little friends. 
 
this year it was REALLY hot and finn went without a nap (two party downers).  but we still managed to have a blast celebrating our big little two year old!
 
margaritas and grandma's popcorn always help a party along...


spoiled (and so lucky) again.


oma and papa surprised finn with this amazing - envisioned by oma, executed by papa - sandbox. which three weeks later, has already consumed finn's attention for HOURS!  and of course, i also love how cute it is.  i mean, stripes!?!?!






on the menu: pulled pork, green salad, cole slaw, baked beans, kettle chips and watermelon.



grandpa and grandma pat traveled from idaho to spend time with our family...what a special treat.


everyone knows our boy so well...tractors, fire trucks, helicopters, trains, sand toys, puzzles.  and they know me too; cute clothes, books, a toy vacuum, and a booster chair!



we were so happy baby jacob was here!!  he won the cute contest.


old friends and new friends. 











TWO candles.  and funfetti cupcakes...is there any other flavor?!



post-party relaxing and playing tag with all the grandparents and the tantes.

 
it was a good day.
 
****
 
the next morning, finn woke up to all his new toys and it felt like christmas . 
 
i love the day-after-party. 
 
and lastly, our sweet, sweet two year old.  with that face that nearly breaks my heart every day.
