Happy Birthday Graham!

I know I'm delayed, but I still wanted to post about Graham's birthday parties. This post is Round #1. This party was for close family. We weren't able to invite everyone we would have liked to due to space restrictions. We had a full house of nearly almost 30 people. Those whose kiddos have summer birthdays and can have outdoor parties are lucky.






The theme was safari. What else, right??

The main cake had little safari animals on it. Graham's cake was made special by mommy to accomodate all of his allergies/sensitivies. It was shaped like a star with little star sprinkles. It's in the cake display on the left.


Birthday Boy!!


Presents!!


There were a few big hits. First off was the tricycle from Uncle Todd and Aunt Lisa. He can't yet ride, but he sures loves the bell. *ring, ring* All night and all the next day. :)


Here he is playing peek-a-boo in his wagon. He loves his wagon. Now that the weather is warming up, we have been for several walks in it. So much fun. I think he prefers it over the stroller.

He got a shopping cart and play food. I love, love, love this pic of Grandma and Aunt Connie and Uncle Cass putting the food together. So sweet!

Birthday Cake with TWO candles!!

"Mom is great, she gives us chocolate cake..."


The party kept going all night. Well, at least for a few of us. My nieces and nephew, and Maria and Jordan's little boy stayed the night. Graham went to bed at 10, the rest of us were up until 4 in the morning. Then we all crashed. I took these pics right before I woke everyone up with bacon, eggs, and fruit.



It was a great birthday party. The fun is not done yet. We had another party for him the following weekend for his toddler friends. Post and pics to follow.

He looks soooo tall in the that photo with him and the "popper" toy (Luke has one as well and LOVES it). Looks like it was a fun party had by all :) I can't believe he's 2.
