Party on!

It's been a week since the big day,  and I guess it's taken that long for me to recover and post birthday party pictures. ;)  Braden wasn't feeling the greatest on his birthday weekend, and by Monday Billy and I caught the "bug" too - and it was a lonnng week.

Thankfully we're all feeling much better and enjoyed the gorgeous 80+ degree weather we've had the last couple of days.  Sadly, I didn't take any pics this weekend, but click here to see pictures from a year ago today (scroll to the bottom of the post) - it snowed!


Back to B's big day . . .

Since we knew B was under the weather, and weren't planning to go to church b/c we didn't want to take a sick kiddo to the nursery, we let him sleep in.  When he woke up and came downstairs, his face was priceless!



Sunday evening B's grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins helped celebrate with a pizza party at Godfathers.



 After pizza, it was time for cake.  Tractor cake! And ice cream!

Blowing out the candles . . .
  . . . and diggin in!

Time for presents!  He was suprised by this card that sang, and kept opening and closing it . . .
  . . . and really got into opening gifts, with the help of cousin Aidan!
 He got so many great things, including a great fall/winter wardrobe, a new book,  . . .
  . . . and a bat and ball (which had to be used in the restaurant)!

Ball + party hat = ice cream cone?

Obviously Braden had a great time at his party, and it was fun to see him perk up and enjoy it after feeling icky all weekend.  Thanks to our families for helping us celebrate B's special day!
