Choo Choo 2 Party

In my opinion a 2 year old doesn't need a big birthday party. BUT? We ended up having one anyway! It just worked out that we have such wonderful people down here in Florida to celebrate with that we ended up inviting everyone over for a BBQ. It was the hottest day, a heat advisory was issued, so we put up awnings and umbrellas in the back yard and filled up the baby pool, had a sprinkler running, and played with water balloons! With 4 people taking pictures I have a hundred fun photos, so I've decided to give you the idea with a few favorites.

Baby Fiona (Marigot and Dennis Fuller's youngest) enjoying being held and loved on!

Look at Isaac's facial expression when he and Mallory reach in to the water balloon bucket just to find out they are all gone. Oh well!

The guys.

Trying to stay cool in the small amount of shade we created.

Captured! Ellie had enough of Robert's hard balloon tosses and decided she needed to get him back! At-a-girl, Ellie! Thats quite some stance!

The spread.

Isaac ate 3 hot dogs! No joke.

Tradition: Dan has promised that he will make every one of Isaac's birthday cakes. Here he is before the party decorating his chocolate cake. The icing was AMAZING.

Thomas the Train!

Thanks to Stephanie for noticing Dan and getting this on camera! Does he really think he can sneak this in with 23 people at our house!? (Classic Dan moment, huh?)

We put bibs on the youngest kids and plopped them down on the tile floor and let 'em go! This is Madisyn.

This is Mallory.

This is Ellie.

And, well...you know who this is. Or maybe not with all that frosting on his face?

We had a blast!

Thanks to everyone who came and I'm sorry if you didn't make the post. No hard feelings!?
