Birthday weekend!

Colton turned 2 Friday and we celebrated all weekend long!!

Making cupcakes for daycare...this is the face I got when I said say cheese....

Birthday breakfast....we were practicing blowing out his candles

Opening presents from mommy and daddy.....

Saturday....trying out his new Gator

 w/Papa

 Opening presents @ his party....

 Woohooo a new basketball hoop!! We now have 2 hoops in our house- his new one that will grow with him and his old one that is getting a little too small.  I tried to move the smaller one out today but he caught me and wanted BOTH to stay so he can have his own "court."  I will have  to be a little more sneaky to get the smaller one out.... :)

Birthday cake....I  found an edible Thomas the Train cake topper online and it worked perfect for his cake. Super easy!!

 Everyone singing to him....

 haha I LOVE this picture- he wasn't  big fan of everyone singing to him...

 But once he got to eat his cake and ice cream he was all smiles!!

I think his birthday weekend was a success....and for the record,  2 year old birthday parties are exhausting--I think more for Mommy and Daddy than Colton!! :)

Snow!

Friday night we had lots of snow fall here.....so of course we had to get on our snow gear and go play in it this weekend! :)

 He looked like a little penguin walking outside in all his gear.....

 PUSH ME!! He loved sledding down our little hill.



Haircut

Check out Colton's haircut...

We went to a barber(for the 1st time) today and Colton did amazing!! It was by far the best he has ever sat for a haircut.

  In the past  Mike would just do it but with him being so busy in the fields he hasn't had time to do it lately and we needed it this week since Colton has his 2 year pictures this weekend. Crazy to say he is almost 2...WOW!!

 

What we did last night....

 Painting his pumpkin- he picked out the color....

and proceeded to paint almost the entire thing blue!! 

Our pretty pumpkins on our steps! ;)  

Fall 2010..so far!

Here are a few pictures from our Fall so far!

@ the Toby Keith concert in Omaha

 Colton helping "make" cookies...

 Thomas! He picked this out for his Halloween costume and puts it on daily...good thing he is getting some use out of it :)

 Showing off his new Thomas pjs...

 Yesterday he went to ride in the combine or "bombine" as he calls it, with Daddy.

 He loved standing up watching everything that was going on. 

 Funny boy put on daddy's gloves

Weekend Fun

Here are a few pictures from our weekend! Saturday we had a wedding, Sunday we had a family reunion w/Mike's Mom's family and today we went to a parade and a baseball game! What a busy weekend!! We had lots of fun getting to see lots of friends and family. Early bedtime tonight! :)

Mike and Colton @ the wedding....this was the only picture I took.  Colton wasn't too interested in taking pictures...

@ the parade

Weekend Recap

We had a great low key weekend. Mike had family back at his parents house so we spent lots of time out there.  We went swimming, ran through the sprinkler, and ate cake to celebrate Julie's birthday!

The boys checking out the sprinkler

Someone was paying more attention to his mr freeze than the sprinkler...

Kendall was having lots of fun with all the extra attention at Grandma and Grandpas house! She sure is a cutie and changes each time we see her!

Mr. Colton enjoying his 2nd piece of birthday cake. He loved it and it was his lucky weekend...he got it both days! :)

Serious....

This is more like Colton...not so serious!! He is such a funny guy these days...just tonight I was putting clothes away in the bedroom and he walked in and went straight to the bathroom and said " be right back, shower." You never know what he is going to say next!
