Carter’s 2nd Birthday Party

 

Carter’s party was a total success! Besides the fact that it was supposed to rain all day and we had to move the party inside, everything came together perfectly (with lots of help from our family, that is!) It didn’t even end up raining after all so the kids got to play outside and enjoy the weather. Almost everyone came and Carter had so much fun playing with all the children.

Thank you Denise & Carl for hosting such a wonderful party, it really couldn’t have been done with out you guys! I also want to say thanks to everyone who came out, you made his day so special! And for those who couldn’t make it-we missed you : )

The morning of the party we cleaned and set up everything. Carter took his nap around noon and woke up about 30 minutes before 2pm so he was well rested by party time.  CJ asked him “Are you ready to party?” and Carter goes “I ready for party, yay!” Ha, it was the cutest thing! He usually wakes up grouchy so I was happy he woke up so excited.

Here are some pictures of the decorations:

Ready to open gifts after the cake (which he didn’t eat!) I guess it was all the excitement because nearly every mom at the party said the same thing “I can’t get him/her to eat anything!” They were all having too much fun I guess. Thanks again everyone for all the amazing gifts, also! Carter loves them all, they are all so nice :)

After gift opening, it was back outside to play some more! It was really the best party I could’ve hoped for! I know Carter had a great time, we all did :) I still can’t believe its over already, gosh! I don’t even want to think about the # 3, oh my goodness..
