The Birthday Party

Ahhh...the birthday party.
As some of you know, we haven't had much luck with birthday parties at our house.  For both of Parker's B-day parties it rained...I mean RAINED.  It has become a bit of a joke...if we need rain have Trav and Misty plan a birthday party.
Well....we need rain...and Carson's birthday party was planned for Saturday.
What do you know ?!?!? We woke up to thunderstorms and torrential rain!
Alas, 
by 4PM when the party started it cleared up and we were able to be outside. 
Travis was thinking and put some fans on the patio and it really helped the air flow so everyone wasn't miserable...at least they said they weren't :)

This was and idea from Pinterest.  Blow the balloons up and thread a string through them.  I wish I had made the string tighter, but it still turned out good.   
Carson slept until shortly after his party started so he was able to make a "Grand" entrance.
And I got a little extra cuddle time ;)



Start you engines...this "Cars" turning 1!

YUM!
Kim, trying to get Carson to actually "eat" some cake...



After dinner, cake, presents, we were able to just hang out for a while and visit!  Travis got out the "Stomp Rocket" and the kids...and adults...had a great time!
