Birthday Part 2- Barnyard Birthday Party

On Saturday night, we had a barnyard birthday party at our house! We had so much fun!! We had barbeque catered by Penguin Eds. Tayson had a great time playing with all of the kids. There were toys everywhere!

Before the party started! This child doesn't wear pants unless he HAS to! He's a diaper kind of guy!






We set up some tables in the garage so that everyone would have more room to sit and eat. That is one thing that stinks about having a winter birthday, you can't go outside and sit on the deck!

Playing on his new slide! He likes to sit at the top for a few minutes and yell "GO" before he actually decides to "GO"!!



I think overall he had a wonderful birthday!! I can't believe he is two already, it goes by WAY too fast!!

How fun! You did a great job decorating; it looks wonderful. I am glad to see Carter is not the only kid that wants to run around in his diaper.

I can't believe he is already 2. It does go by way too fast!

He is looking like such a big boy!!

OH MY GOODNESS!! I am in shock! Last year we both did "Prince" birthday parties, and do you know what we decided to do this year?? A cowboy (farm) themed party! (We've already sent out the cowboy invitations, bought the decorations and planned the Bar-B-Que dinner!) I cannot believe that we have had the same ideas twice now!! Can't wait until next year... =)
