Seriously, where did the time go?
These 2 are such buddies since they get to be home with eachother half of the day
Calebs birthday is 2 days before Christmas. Its always hard to have a party because there is always so much going on. I feel bad for the kid because he always seems to get jipped in the party area. This year, I wanted him to have a fun day. We decided to have a train making party about a week before his real birthday. It was such a fun night. We had pizza and made candy trains. He loved it!!
Such a spread...right?
Since we were going to shove our faces with candy all night, I really didnt see much need for a cake, but we needed something so I just went with cupcakes. We had a real cake on his actual birthday.
Im such a cook...cant you tell??
He got this cool birthday hat from school and had worn it everyday up to his birthday
We opened presents first before things got all messy with the trains. Caleb got spoiled from all his aunts and cousins and Grandparents. He was definatly a happy boy!!
The best part of the night...the trains!!
This has been a tradition of my family ever since I was little. Every year, we would make these candy trains for our friends. I loved delivering them because everyone would always freak out. Once I got older, my friends would just come over and make their own. Bill and I have a competition every year on who can make the coolest train. I totally win every year =)
Everyone looks so excited to get started.
Even little Kate got in on the action...well the candy eating action anyway.
Mary and Selle and Drew and Maile
I think Ana won for the most candy on her train. It was covered
This is my favorite sight...seeing all the kids laughing and talking and having a good time. Now that they are getting older, it happens quite often. I love it!!
Tysons masterpiece
Yea, Avery totally did this herself (thanks dad)
