Tyler's 2nd Birthday Party

I'm obviously still playing catch-up since I'm just now posting about Tyler's party, which was 3 weeks ago on June 7th. It was a tractor and farm themed party since Tyler LOVES tractors. After having tons of fun at his cousin Cooper's birthday party in May, Tyler was so excited about his own. He kept talking about "my party" and who would be there. It was a small gathering of mostly family at Nana and Papa's house (their house has more space). Tyler's favorite "big dude" cousin Cooper and his best girl Kaitlyn were there.

For dinner we had pizza and after opening lots of wonderful presents, we had yummy cupcakes. Nana baked them (3 different flavors!) and we decorated them with the help of Grandma, who piped them with green icing that looked like grass. We topped each one with little farm animals, except for Tyler's cupcake, which had a tractor candle and two balloons. (We always do a candle for each year, plus one to grown on, so he had three candles even though he was turning two).

Tyler had so much fun, which was our goal for the day. He loves all the gifts he received and for days he talked about his party. A big thanks to everyone who could join us!

Below is a slide show of different photos we took at the party. Slide your mouse over the photos to see captions.



Tyler was a little shy when it came to all the attention he received while everyone sang "Happy Birthday" to him. You'll notice that he ducks his head part of the way through the song.
