Edward’s 2nd Birthday

I know this post is overdue but we’ve been very busy lately!  Last Saturday we celebrated Edward’s 2nd Birthday.  The day started off with my sister and a friend coming up to help clean my house.  Thomas took Edward with him to run errands and I was freed up to bake Edward a cake.  It was such a nice morning and we got so much done.

On Sunday, we had Edward’s party at a park in Opelika.  At the beginning of the week, the forecast was supposed to be beautiful.  As the week progressed, the chance of rain grew and grew.  I was so stressed out.  The rain ended up holding off until a couple of hours after the party.  At this park, they have a train that goes around the park.  You can rent it for parties.  I decided that since Edward is really into trains, I would rent the train for a little while and invite a few friends.  Man, birthday parties are chaotic!!!  I felt like by the time we were finished with cake and ice cream, everybody was leaving and I hadn’t even had a chance to visit!!

Edward had a blast.  He had about 6 friends there and the rest was family.  He really enjoyed riding the train and playing on the playground.  I still can’t get over that my baby is 2!!!

We appreciate all the family and friends that came.  It was an overwhelmingly fun time.  (P.S. these pictures are out of order.  Sorry!!)
