We have leftover cupcakes, balloons on the ceiling, and lots of new toys throughout our house… all the signs of a fun birthday party!! :)
Chris got home late Saturday night from California and we were SO excited to see him. Saturday, Mom and I had spent lots of time preparing for the party so Sunday morning we only had a few final touches. (Thanks, Mom for all the help!!)
Thankfully Asher took a rare morning nap on Sunday so he was full of energy for his birthday party at noon. Our special guests were Nana and Papa Jasper, Grandma and Grandpa Atkinson, and Auntie Liz, Uncle Joel, and baby Coralaine.
It was a rainy day so we didn’t get to play on our new playset, but we still had lots of fun inside!
We had yummy cookout foods, chocolate cupcakes, and Handel’s Ice Cream! Deeeeeeeelish!
Asher did a great job and was very sweet about thanking everyone for the presents. And speaking of presents… He got SO many! What a loved little boy!
Asher opened a pool for the backyard complete with a slide and a giraffe that sprays water… of course he wanted to open it and use it RIGHT away. :) I’m sure it will be hot soon enough!!
He got lots of great new books, Thomas Trains, clothes, and toys including the Leap Frog Fridge Phonics which he loves!
We are all really excited to try Asher’s new push trike that we can push and steer until he’s ready to ride alone! Should make for lots of fun walks around the lake!
Asher also got a mini golf set from Papa Jasper. I’m sure he’ll have lots of volunteers over the years teach him how to golf!
SUCH a sweet baby girl!!
I know I’ve said this before, but we are so thankful for our parents and siblings (and their spouses and kids) who all love Asher (and us) so much! Though we are not lucky enough to live just down the street from our families… everyone is always so quick to hop in their car or send packages or call or skype… and it makes the distance seem not-so-distant! Thank you to each of you for making Asher’s 2nd birthday and his first two years of life so wonderful! We love you all!
Happy Birthday, Asher-boy! We love you SO much!!
After all of Asher’s party guests went home he spent time running back and forth with his balloons driving Daisy completely crazy!! :)
I love the tongue sticking out!
Such a fun day for a fun little boy!
