March 26, 2011 Birthday Party!!

March 26, 2011

More Birthday pictures.

Gabriel is digging into his cake.

Liam "smiled" for one picture;)
That is cake on my face, neck, & collar/shirt.

Gabriel's friends, the Petersons & Kubiks,
started an impromptu dance party
in the living room. So naturally...
Gabriel got his groove on!

Check out those moves!

We had a CARS pinata. I can't believe there
is no picture of Gabriel. Oh well:(
The little boy in Red in our neighbor, James.
They had only recently moved in & we
didn't know them well but now
Gabriel & James are best buds:)

There were a lot of gifts to open.
I think Chet & I were more excited
to see what was under the paper but
once they were open Gabriel was
excited to play with them.

Liam was sleeping so he didn't open his
gifts at the same time.

If all Gabriel got for his birthday was
dum dum suckers (aka lollipops)
he would be a happy boy.
The theme of our party was
ALL the boys' favorite things:
Dinosaurs
Thomas the Train
Cars
Nemo
John Deer Tractor
(Gabriel's first real word was, "tractor")
Dum Dum "lollipops" [in a Cars pinata]
Blueberries (for Liam)

M&M's [to decorate cupcakes]

Our good friend & the boys' "Aunt Catie."
We LOVE her so much!
She is a great friend and has been so good
to my boys and to our family.

We moved 2 minutes away from her
because we like her so much;)

Grama, Gabriel, & Mommy.
The only thing missing is Liam who
is sleeping soundly upstairs.

Liam is awake and helping open his gifts.

We had a train table with only a
few trains that were always lost.
When the Welch's asked what the
boys wanted/needed I told them
that they would love more trains.
The trains are Liam absolute favorite
toys and he plays at the train
table like it's his job;)
I cannot stress enough how much he
enjoyed the trains that the Welch's
bought for he and Gabriel!!
Our little Liam is a train fanatic!
It is so syrupy sweet to hear him say,
"choo choo,"
