Birthday Party

Kyle is now officially 2!  We had his birthday party today and we all had fun.  It is crazy that we got in last night at around 11:30 PM and we had the party about 12 hours later!

 Josie pulls a string

 Nora's very excited for her turn.

 Running low on strings!  Excitement building up very fast!

 And there's the candy!

 The cake was pretty simple because we did not order one beforehand.  Thankfully we had some decorations and the candle to make this Safeway cake more festive.

Kyle was busy with a ring pop in his mouth so he never blew out the candle.  He just continued to suck his ring pop.

 Chatting with Josie and her Mommy, Chris.

 Baby Matthew and his Grandma!

 Kyle loved being in the bounce house.

 After the party guests left, Kyle decided he needed a shower to cool off.  Then it was time for presents.

 He was so excited to get a sword!

The boys enjoyed chalking up the driveway at Grandma and Grandpa's house while we were there.

 Kyle loved playing with the dogs.

Here are some pictures of my family.  We took them on the last day and it was a pretty emotional time for me.  I am so glad to be home but I do miss them tremendously!

 

 My brothers, Robert and Roy

 Yes, I am the shorty!

 My Mom and brothers

 All of us!

 

 And some random pictures from my phone

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here is some video from my phone of the boys dancing during intermission at a Bingo in Texas.

Keep in mind I was taking the video while holding Kyle in my lap.

Party!

When we visit the Texas Grandparents, we usually have a birthday party for all 3 boys so that all the people and family who don't get to celebrate birthdays with them get the opportunity to do so anyway.  This time around, we had the party at Peter Piper Pizza.  The boys had so much fun!
