Paeton's 2nd Birthday Party


On Saturday May 29, 2010 we held Paeton's 2nd Birthday Party. The theme was the 3 B's that she's currently really into: Basketball, Baby Dolls and Big Trucks. Lots of friends and family joined us at our house for a bbq and yard fun.

Paeton woke up from her nap to a house full of people - she was so excited. Here she is getting ready for her dinner.

Party favors for all the kiddos!

They were so cute together.

Paeton's friends, Austin & Cole (twins) having fun in the driveway.

Paeton starting to open her gifts.

Paeton was so excited to open gifts next to Baby Skylar - Austin and Cole's sister. She would open a gift and then make sure Skylar still had her pacifier in.

Here's me (ready to pop) trying to make sure all cards were read, nothing was lost and that we said thank you for each gift. Not an easy task.

Jodi stepped in to help me control the gift opening.

Paeton's friend Owen (15 mos) up close.

Paeton taking a break and Bryce encouraging her to keep opening so we could do the pinata.

Paeton taking her first swing at the basketball pinata. Funny story - Jodi has had this pinata since high school. His mom bought it for his high school graduation party. I'm not sure if she thought that a bunch of high school grads would be into hitting the pinata but nonetheless, it never got used and here we are enjoying it at Paeton's party. I've since filled her in on the type of games high school students are into :)

Jodi jumping in to help Paeton hit the pinata. That was a good swing!

They broke open the pinata on the 2nd swing and the kids went nuts.

So excited to be two!
Our little love.

Thank you to everyone who came and celebrated Paeton's birthday with us. More than half of our guests drove over an hour from either the north or the south to come to this party. We feel so blessed to have such wonderful friends and family.
