Weston's 2nd Birthday

I still can't get my head around the fact that Westie turned two last week.  How did that happen?



We have seriously made August a month-long celebration for sweet West.  His actual birthday was on August 17 and we kicked off the day with a trip to Waffle House for breakfast.


After breakfast - or technically "brunch", although I don't think WH makes the distinction - Ben took the big boys to see Planes with Kyle & Emmerson.  It was Weston's first movie-theater experience; other than a dirty diaper, 2 self-declared intermissions and loads of popcorn and bootlegged M&Ms, I think it went fairly well.


After dinner, we feasted on birthday cake and let Weston open his presents.




This past weekend, we had Weston's party.  We had a joint party with our neighbor Carson, who turned two a week earlier than Westie did.  We could not have asked for better weather...mid-80s, breezy and sunshine.  Per West's request, we had a Mickey Mouse party, and Poppy & Gigi were kind enough to rent us a bounce house for his party.  And Uncle Mikey & Aunt Jenn came in town that weekend too, so that was a real treat!





Being crafty, I couldn't possibly let a party slip by without at least a little bit of Pinterest inspiration.



Everyone wore the Mickey party hats, which turned out pretty cute :)


 Weston's mackin' on all the girlies :)

We caught Westie red-handed (literally) swiping some icing. 









After a day full of fun, friends & family, we had a relaxing evening.  Sunday, Mike & Jenn came to church with us before heading back to Raleigh.


Thanks to everyone for helping us celebrate sweet Weston's birthday!
