Asa is 2!!

Happy Birthday to my sweet boy! What a ride the last two years have been. We celebrated a week after his birthday with a good old-fashioned backyard party. Matt set up sprinklers and pools--and the ultimate hit of the party...an inflatable pool at the end of the slide on the fort.

Here is Ace's cake (obviously made by mommy)...the red planet surrounded by menacing aliens.



A close up of the aliens.


I was busy keeping everyone happy and finally noticed Asa was lingering around the muffin/mini donut basket. My sister informed my that he was double-fisting the powdered donuts and had eaten eight of them, followed by a watermelon chaser. Powdered sugar + watermelon juice = thick pink paste that sticks to everything.


Here are some of the kids going for the water baloons.
