Cooper and Chloe's 2nd Birthday Party

Yesterday, we had Cooper and Chloe's 2nd Birthday party. We had it a Clay's Restaurant because of their love for animals. Clay's has a few farm type animals that kids can feed and pet. It's a great family place to even go for lunch on a beautiful day. When we pulled into the parking lot Cooper recognized it (we had only been there twice before) and yelled, "Yay!"

See big sis in the background still getting ready...

The Lodge is on Clay's property behind the restaurant. You can book this area for parties.

I love the rustic feel to it! I'm truly a cowgirl at heart! That's Ethan standing at the door.

Inside...

I know that in the grand scheme of things I shouldn't even care about this...

But...the cupcakes were a disappointment for me.

That was NOT butter cream frosting, it was more like a green mess!

Madison and Monica...

Ethan still checking out things...

Chloe and Nathaniel...

My Little Cooper, what can I say? He was having his own little party. Not sure he even realized that everyone was there for him and his sister. He stayed outside the whole time with the animals. We barely got him to come in to sing Happy Birthday let alone EAT!

Chloe preferred the sandbox, yuck!

Richardson's...

I love seeing all our friends and their children together!

Henry...

Big boys...

Truly not into the singing Happy Birthday part. And, I wish I would have gotten them bigger cupcakes or mini cakes. Oh well!

Happy Nathaniel wasn't into it either...

Edward...

Chloe and Ethan...

Zachary and Nathaniel...

Sweet Carly...

Baby Henry...

Cooper loved being in charge of the feed...

Love this!

Mom of Ethan (Meredith) is due early January!

She's having a baby girl who will be named Kate!

My bad attempt to take a picture of all of them...

Finally eating something...

Back at home opening presents...

Cooper's first train sets. He received two, one from the Thomas the Train series

and one from Chuggington.

From the Caraways, love them!

The mother load!

Todd's Mom, Grammy, sent these for their party!

This morning they played with this for awhile. It's from Aunt Donna!

Cooper and Chloe will turn two on Dec. 8th. We are so very grateful for our family and friends who came to the party. We had a blast! And, we got so many cute things. It was like Christmas morning for them when they woke up today. They played for the longest time with everything. We are giving our gift to them on their actual birthday.
