Tyler’s 5th
Birthday Party
When we
asked Tyler what kind of birthday party he wanted he immediately told us he
wanted a train party. So, being the doting parents we are, we gladly obliged.
Of course, we may have gone a little overboard with the theme. Alana did a
little research over the internet and found some crazy train party ideas,
including the taped train tracks that went all around the room and the Thomas
the Tank Engine photo area. It was all worth it in the end because Tyler was
very happy with his “choo choo” party.

Be sure and stop to take a photo with Thomas off to the

The Thomas piñata didn’t last very long. |

Candy!!!! |
Instead of cake we had brownies since Tyler prefers
them. |
The party left Tyler and Grandpa exhausted at the end
of the day. |

Another
Birthday Party
We were
invited to a dual birthday party the weekend following Tyler’s party and it was
a ton of fun. There were water slides and play pools galore. Tyler loves
playing in the water and was stoked to see the giant water slide structure.

Woo hoo! |
So cool. |
Water fun. |
|
|
Playing takes a lot out of you. |

A Memorial
Day Picnic
On
Memorial Day we got together with some new friends for a picnic/BBQ at the
local park. It was fun to just sit back and relax with friends for a change.

Tyler’s
Latest Shenanigans
Daddy
caught a lizard for Tyler to keep for a few hours. We fed it some of our toads’
crickets, which it devoured, and then set him free to catch more bugs in the
yard.

|
Tyler got his own pictures of the lizard. |
He had a cool blue belly. |
Tyler’s such a crazy man! |
