2nd Birthday Party for Our Little Construction Worker ;)

This last weekend we celebrated our little man entering the lovely terrible 2's ;)
When James was born Mike's squadron sent him gifts. One of which was a signed by them all Tonka truck... 2 years later he loves that truck so much! 
We even had his pictures done in it when he was a few weeks old! 
Every time we see any trucks he just looses his mind with excitement yelling Truck 
Thank you Jesus it sounds like Truck unlike what Jenna said at this age ;)
Seeing the party was at 3pm we didn't do a whole meal, but knowing there would be lots of toddlers we made sure there would be snacks!
My wonderful mom AKA gramie and her side kick were in charge of the kitchen!
Instead of trying to get a group of littles to do games we just left them for "open play" instead :)
We are currently getting ready to "upgrade" our side yard, so it made a great place for a kid sized construction sight! Then we had a "cone toss" and a ball tent to play in. On the patio we put out rode tape, a cars land mat, and cars to play with. 
Then there was our ever popular play set!

And every construction sight needs signs!! 
For the 1st hour we just let the kids play and all us parentals got time to catch up :)


















Then James opened his gifts... kind of... he mostly just wanted to play with his new toys every time he opened a new one, so it took some convincing ;) 


This may be my favorite thing ever! Look what Tammy made James!!
.
Then it was Cake time!
 My very sweet friend who is a baking rock star made James his cake!It was a hit!


Once it was time for his friends to leave they got Rock Candy as a Thank you!
You are so welcome other moms ;)
Then we cleaned up the back yard while James cooked dinner
It was really exhausting for him lol
The kids' favorite part was washing all the cake off the patio, and their brother!
Once we had dinner we went on our favorite walk to see the ducks, and get snacks. 

It was a fantastic day and we are so grateful for everyone who was apart of 
making it special for our always BABY James!
