Owen and Tate's birthday party!

Owens birthday is February 23. My best friend Jill had Tate 9 days after me on March 3. So our boys have become best friends too! We usually celebrate with a combined party for the 2 of them. They both love the movie "Cars" so we had a cars themed party for them. Jill made these super cute cakes that looked like Lightning McQueen and we had a fun time hanging out with all our friends! Here is the birthday boy! He sure does NOT like his picture being taken so this was the best shot I got, sorry.And who could forget about the little brother!? Look at that sweet boy playing away. haha I love his confused look on his face.
We had some orange cones we were decorating so we had all the kids color a picture to wrap around the cone.
The set up! These are the 2 cakes Jill made for the boys, one for Owen and one for Tate. I made extra cupcakes too! We had lots of sweets this week!!!
You can see Owen in the middle and Tate on the right, they are both holding their arms up, excited to sing Happy Birthday!
Everyone having a grand ole time

And finally, of course, the boys ripping into their presents!!!
I just love having Tate for Owen to play with! They have so much fun together! Happy birthday big boys! :)

Family party for Owens birthday!

Owen had his 3rd birthday on February 23! I am amazed at how quickly time goes and that he is turning into such a big boy! We celebrated a ton! The weekend before we went up to the Jacobs and had cupcakes, then I had a party at my parents as well the day after his birthday and then the weekend after we had a friend party. It makes me so sad that he is getting so big and soon will be off to preschool then school. I love my little baby Owen that is no longer my baby! Anyways, here are a few pics from his first party at my moms. Owen LOVES dump trucks and any trucks really, so I made him a dump truck cake! It was awesome!I served food and napkins and such out of some of his toy dump trucks.
Owen could not wait to dig into his presents....
then he got mad that we made him stop playing with his new toys and come over and sing Happy Birthday so that is why he looks grumpy blowing out his candle! LOL

Friend party pics to come...
