Choo Choo Party

On Saturday, we hosted a small party for family and a few friends (Buddy's godparents and Punky's godparents) for Buddy's 2nd birthday.  I debated for weeks over the theme of his birthday.  I finally decided on a Thomas and Friends theme.  (There will be plenty more birthdays for a Dinosaur or Animal themed party, I think.)  Buddy was very excited about his Choo-Choo Party, although I am not sure he really knew what it meant.

The cake was good, but he was more interested in the lollipop!

Of course, Punky had to "help" open the presents. 

It wasn't too long until Buddy figured out how to open them by himself.

We had brats, hot dogs, salads, watermelon and chips for lunch.  The weather was nice and the kids were able to play outside. 

 

Buddy got a lot of great presents.  Most everything was animal, dinosaur, or train related.  Perfect for Buddy!

Tonight, we talked about what where we should go to eat on Buddy's actual birthday.  Pizza?  Pasta?  Those are typically Buddy's favorite meals.  Tonight he said, "No, Rice and Beans."  That's my boy!
