Bentley's 2nd Birthday Party

Last Thursday we decided we should probably do SOMETHING for Bentley's birthday- so we invited some friends over the following evening for some cake and ice cream. Bentley loves trains lately so I found a super cute -and easy- train on Pinterest to make. It was the perfect little project for London to help me with during nap time.
 We used cupcakes, grahmn crackers, oreo bites, frosting, mini m&m's, and fudge sticks to make little train cars! cute huh?! And so easy.

 This little boy was a little bit of a grump! About 2 hours before his party he starting coughing and had a super runny nose. Poor guy. He got a little happier as friends arrived, but he was kind of out of it.We had Grandma Gardner, Emily and Jason and their boys Justin, Kaden, and Logan, Lorin and Lisa with their girls Bella and new baby Hannah, Amy and Justin with their girls Bella and Lucy, and Kathleen, David, and Kaleb come to celebrate with us.
 We took all the little kids outside and let them play in the backyard for 45 minutes or so and then headed back inside for cupcakes, ice cream, and presents. The kids were pretty excited to dive in. Here is Kaleb, Macy, London, Kaden, and Bella checking it out.
 The sang to Bentley and then he got to blow out his candles.



 Just as we were getting ready to open presents it started POURING outside. Bella was too excited and just had to play in the rain. This girl LOVES the rain, she was drenched!
 Bentley opening his presents...
 I think he was most excited for his Cardinals Hat. He opened it up and got SO excited "HAT!! It's a HAT!!".
 His big gift was a train! He has been loving his "choo choo train" and plays with it daily. The girls also like it, so that's a bonus!
