Graham's 2nd Birthday

The Sunday before Graham's birthday we had Craig over for dinner and since he was going to be out of town for Graham's party we had cake and ice cream for him that night. Lynnadele was out of town or else she would have been there too.

Craig and Lynnadele gave Graham these awesome happy birthday glasses and fun light up sucker. They even gave Bridger some too so he didn't feel left out.

On the morning of Graham's actual birthday I put balloons hanging from his door and he played with those forever. He's so easily entertained.

We had some birthday pancakes for breakfast.

I had a friend's sealing in the Logan temple on Graham's birthday so I drove the kids up there with me since Jake had to go to work. We went to the little zoo to kill some time. Bridger was such a good helper pushing Amber around for me in her stroller.
While I went to the wedding my cousin Tucker's wife, Caitlin, watched the kids for me. To pay them back I took them out to dinner at my favorite Mexican restaurant, Cafe Sabor.
I told the waiter that it was Graham's birthday so they all came out and sang to him and gave him some fried ice cream with a candle in it for dessert.
We got home from Logan around 8:00 pm but I still wanted Jake to be able to hang out with the kids so we took them bowling. The boys loved it!

Since Graham's birthday party was the next day I didn't want to make a hug cake. I was saving that for later, so we had strawberry shortcake with Barry, Brooke, and Skyler that night.
Brooke and Skyler gave him an awesome Batman mask and a remot control car.
Doesn't he look cute?
He also got some big dinosaurs, clothes, a soccer ball, and soccer nets from me and Jake
It was about 11:00 at night but the boys had to go out and play soccer with their new soccer nets. It was a fun birthday. The next day was Graham's actual birthday party with his friends.

How can my little Graham be 2 years old already? The time has gone by so fast. Graham has such a fun personality and can make friends with anyone. He is a fiesty, happy, fun-loving little boy and Jake and I are so blessed to be his parents. We love you, Grahamy!!
