We celebrated by having our small group and their kiddos over for a "digging in the dirt" birthday party in my parents back yard. The weather turned out to be perfect and it was soo fun having our friends there- everyone was really generous and Tallon received some AWESOME big boy toys- mainly TRUCKS, TRUCKS, TRUCKS! He is constantly rolling them around the house or out in the sandbox- he is definitely ALL BOY!! As per my mom's tradition of always making my birthday cake- I made Tallon's dump truck cake and was quite pleased with how it turned out.
Tallon helped prepare for the festivities by helping daddy mow the backyard ( can you believe he FELL asleep in Reeves' arms?!?! Guess he knew he had a busy afternoon coming up!
The finished cake!!
Everything is set up and Ready for the partiers to arrive! We missed Tal's Aunt Liz and Uncle Mike and Aunt Tiff and Uncle Rob but were thankful that the rest of both sides of the family made the party!
I decided to attach balloons to the sand buckets ( our party favor) for the kids... only problem was that it was windy and we had a hard time getting the balloons and buckets untangled- oops- it was a cute decoration for a few minutes though=)
Mimi and Tallon checking out the cake!
