Happy Birthday to Our First Born!! 2 Years!!

Today is Jackson's 2nd birthday. I can't believe how fast the last 2 years have gone! But they have been the happiest, most satisfying years of my life! And Daniel said it perfectly tonight when he looked at him and said... "I'm so glad you are ours!" We are so lucky to have this little boy in our life.
Here is a run down of the big day...
Happy Birthday First of the Morning with the Birthday Hat pic!

Breakfast of Cinnamon Toast Crunch in bed, yum!!

At his request, a kabota ride, picking oranges along the way, and getting the eggs.

Lunch at McDonalds... delicious! (to play, of course)


Next, some real playtime at the lakefront park.

(home for a nice long nap giving mom plenty of time to decorate the house and the cakes for the party... such a good birthday boy!)
Fishing with dad was a must!!


Pizza for dinner and then party time!



The candle blowing was recorded on video, not camera, but here are a couple shots with the cake.


Opening many many gifts!!

The proud parents!

All of your party guests!



Late night for you!!! But time for bed!


And here's a little reminder of the last couple March 4th's:

The Fair!

The Osceola County Fair was in town! Jack Jack and I went one night with Kara, Shelly and Shanda and all their kidlets. He was mostly a sad kid because he couldn't ride all the rides his cousins could but he did enjoy the ones he could ride! I didn't take any pictures but stole these from Kara's blog.
We also went again with Daniel on a Saturday night. We spent our time looking at the animals - steers, pigs, lambs, chickens, rabbits, ducks and geese. Jackson loved it! We also walked through the exhibition center and watched a bit of the steer sale. No purchases for us this year, we still have plenty of venison! Here Jack and Porter smile for a quick pic!
