After postponing Cole's birthday party until Grandpa (Adam's dad) got better, we had a hard time finding a night that worked for everyone in our families to be there. Finally we were able to come up with a time and Cole had his two year birthday party last night! It was so much fun! We had pizza and he had his Grandpa and Grandma, Granny and Papa, Great Grandpa Johnson, Uncle Neil, Aunt Jenny, Uncle Chad, and cousin Troy there. He thought it was the greatest to be the center of the excitement, especially when we sang Happy Birthday!
Of course he was COMPLETELY spoiled! He got a 50's Diner kitchen which he loved! He loves to take people's orders and ask "what you want?" and "how much money?". He also is now completely set up for hunting, fishing, and camping! He got his own tent (which he wanted Grandma in with him), gun, fishing pole, binoculars, compass, and telescope. He's thrilled! It was hard to get him to keep opening presents after he opened one and started playing with it! He's already making very good use out of his new birthday toys and we are having so much fun playing with him!
He also had an ice cream cake (his dad's choice) and wanted a caterpillar on it. They never turn out the way the picture looks:-) Oh well, it tasted good and Cole got to blow out the candle which is what he talked about all day!
We went for a quick over night trip to High Valley so Adam could help his dad on the cabin yesterday. It was an absolutely gorgeous day and along with getting some work done on the cabin, Cole had a blast hiking, 4-wheeling with Grandma, and just playing in general! And I got a little relaxation while Adam's mom took Cole on a couple of 4-wheeler rides and hikes!
He got a little time fishing with Grandpa (even though there wasn't a fish to be found) and helping skip the bag of "skippin' rocks" he had given Adam's dad for Father's Day. We had a great time and the cabin is looking great! We're definitely going to have years of memories there!
