brazos' tractor party

May 2012- Happy Birthday to Brazos!  It became clear to us about 6 months ago that tractors are one of his favorite things so that is what I've been planning for his party theme.  It was an explosion of green and yellow.

The invitation.

Family picture with the birthday boy.  But in true Casey style, he refused to dress in correct party color attire.  He does own a green shirt and it was clean and hanging in his closet.  But for some reason he didn't wear it.  He has a slight defiant streak that often interferes with my plans.  But he worked really hard to get everything around the house and in the yard ready for the party so I tried not to give him too hard of a time about it.

And now for the party decor.  

A tractor tire filled with corn for digging.

The digging table Casey built for Brazos' birthday.

Some hanging tractor decor.

They were flying around in the wind and I was afraid they'd be destroyed before the party even started. So I weighed them down with a tractor.

Birthday Banner that miraculously stayed in tact despite the gusts of wind.

Cupcakes and tractor cookies.

Goodie Bags.

Everyone seemed to have a great time.  Brazos sure did!

Presents!

Pinata!

Always looking for more...

Brazos with his sweet Godmother, Mignonne.  Brazos has this thing where he refuses to look at the camera when I'm taking pictures.  So after 5 snaps this is still what I got.  I think he does it just because he knows it really gets to me.

After a loooooooooong nap we headed into Fredericksburg for dinner at Hondo's.  A perfect way to end the day of celebrating Brazos' 2nd birthday.
