Nick's b-day party

We celebrated Nick's b-day with Grandma B on Saturday morning. As I mentioned in this post it was a bit of a disaster - the cake fell apart, the pasta salad teetering in the fridge fell out when the door opened, 3 of the 4 balloons popped in the first 5 minutes they were in the house, there were countless time-outs for some wonderful little kids who needed to test their boundaries and there was a cup of spilled milk. What a mess... Despite all of that, they had a good time.

Here's our tractor plates and napkins...
cake after it had been put back together again. poor cake...
cake with candles...

Nick opening his piggy bank from his sister.
Nick getting his dump truck, shirt and books from G&G J.
Nick checking out his slinky from Uncle Z.
Nick loved his ball from Aunt S and Uncle R.
Nick playing with his combine from Mommy & Daddy. they were a bigger hit than I thought they'd be after all the cool gifts he received.

It was a good day. Our almost 2 year old had a ton of fun!
