Bridger's pony birthday party

We had Bridger's birthday party the day after his birthday on Feb. 4th. We planned a pony party since Bridger has been obsessed with horses for a long time now. I was worried because our party would have to be outside and the beginning of the week it was FREEZING temperatures. Luckily, it "warmed" up to about 32 degrees the day of the party.

Bridger had the pony all to himself for about 20 minutes before the girls got there. He just rode the pony around and around the yard. I think his face explains how much he loved it! Grandpa Jimmy, Bridger on Midnight the pony, and the nice guy who brought the pony (I think his name was Steve).



The girls had a blast riding the pony around too! I wish we could have had all of Bridger's cousins there but a few of his cousins live out of state.

It was fun watching Bridger walk all over the yard with Ivy and Ivy and Ivy (he thinks all his girl cousins are named Ivy). He learned how to walk just in time for his 2nd birthday. We are so proud of him!!

The guests watching the pony rides.

Here's his pony cake that I made all by myself. It's exactly like the dinosaur cake we made last year but just turned into a horsie.

I didn't get any good shots of Bridger blowing out the candles because I was feeding Graham. Here he is with his Daddy enjoying the cake. (I should explain that Bridger LOVES his hat and refuses to take it off even when we're indoors. It's hilarious!)

Bridger was spoiled with so many fun presents! He got fun horsies, car toys, clothes, shoes, a giant horse to ride on, and more. Jake and I gave him these Spiderman shoes that light up when he walks and he loved 'em.


Opening more presents with his cousins.

We had a pinata after he opened presents but I didn't get many good pictures of it. We had such a fun party! Thanks to everyone that came and made it such a special day.

2 years old? Already? No, it can't be! Wait, I am going to have a 3-year-old this year? THAT can't be!
