Birthday Weekend

Yes, I am definitely no good when it comes to this blog stuff....i'm sorry!!

This past weekend was a pretty busy one for the Richard's. Cullen turned 2 on Saturday (Sept. 25) and we had his birthday party on Sunday along with a small one for Ryan who turned 30 on Sunday!

Cullen is absolutely fascinated with tractors so it was a no brainer when it came to what theme I would do his party in. He absolutely loved it!!

The decor...minus all the food, cake, and drinks that went on the table!

Uncle Jake's tractor that he brought over for the birthday party!

Seeing his tractor cake for the first time. I think he was a fan!!

To this day if you ask him if he had a fun party his first response is "CAKE!"

A close up of the cake

 Ryan's surprise decorations! I set up a table for him inside while he was outside playing with the kids!!

 He wasn't sure why I told him to come inside!!

He had just said that morning that he thought it was HIS birthday...where was his cake and presents!! :)

The kids loaded up for their tractor ride

Trey and Jordan had a front row seat!!

They took the tractor on the hill of dirt that we have by the pond in the back pasture!

They had about an hour ride before I had to make them come back to open presents and cut the cake.

And the presents begin.... 

He figured out if he crawled on top of his drawing table that he just received he could get to the presents a lot faster than Mom could hand them to him!

Tractors, combines, accessories...OH MY!!!

Look what I got and you didn't!!!

UUMMMM....is this for me?

A little taste of chocolate icing.

Hold on....if I use the fork I can get a lot more in my mouth!

WAIT A MINUTE....

Driving Megan around in his wagon.

I suggested that he let Megan drive him around but he looked at me with a crazy look and hit the gas!! Guess that means Mom had a TERRIBLE idea!!

Cullen didn't have a nap all day and was purely exhausted that night. He drove his tractor up to the door leading into the house and just stopped. He sat there in a daze. I am convinced the tractor took over the driving and put him there because he didn't know which way was up or down. It was very funny! I don't think any of us have caught up on rest quite yet!

Thank you to everyone who was a part of our weekend. It was a ton of fun, and we can't wait until next year....ok, maybe Mom can!!!
