Birthday Week Is Over

I have to post about Braden's Birthday one last time this year. We had two parties and the second one has not received its own post yet.The main purpose of this blog is to record our experiences because our memories are sure to fail some day. I don't want to forget Braden's second second birthday party so I am wrapping up Birthday Week with a post about it now.

If you would rather have the reflective birthday post click HERE. If you missed Braden's Mickey Mouse party then try HERE. After catching up with all our celebrations read on to see about the Cars party.

Braden's party was on the day after his birthday. On his actual birthday Arica and I took him to our favorite Mexican restaurant for the sombrero and song treatment. The only guy that can play the guitar was taking a siesta so we had to settle for the sombrero only. And of course the adults ate good Mexican food while Braden explored the area immediately surrounding our back corner table.


Then we went to Chik-fil-a to play at the play ground. Braden likes the slide.


He went down in every conceivable position including heat first with two other kids in tow.


At the party Saturday Braden was impatient. We opened presents first. Here he is in his first car.


He blew out his candle by himself again. At the rate of 2 parties a year he is already a pro.


Of course he did his normal icing taste test.


After all the partying and present opening he looked like this.


It was a happy birthday indeed.

Sweet! Love the sombrero. And, of course, you can't go wrong with Lightning McQueen.
