Toby became a big 2 year old on Friday! It's hard to believe 2 years have gone by...they have gone by FAST. It doesn't seem like I can remember him much as a baby. He is so much fun and so loved by his brother Caleb and his mommy & Daddy...not to mention his grandparents and his aunts and uncles. We invited friends from next door (whom he loves to play with) to our "Train Party". We had his Uncle Joe and Aunt Beth, and his "E-pa" and his "E-ma" (memaw). We were going to be heading to Dan Nichols park to finish the celebration where there is a choo choo train to ride, but the poor guy developed a fever on his birthday and has had one since...about 102 degrees.
We had Thomas plates and napkins, Toby had an engineer hat and overalls that he loves to wear. My mother and I spent quite a while decorating his train cake, which I know I could not have done without her. My parents have been visiting since the 25th and we are heading for chicago over the 4th of July. We have had a great visit with my parents (Memaw & E-pa). I wish we could see each other more often. They are so great with the boys.

This is Everyone who came to the "train party" except me (I'm taking the pictures). We had aioli chicken, a homemade southwest bean salsa with chips, cheesy bread, and a pasta salad for dinner. (Not that you care, I'm just recording it for future curiosity). I have to say the records are nice to go back to...It's been two years I've been blogging and It's nice to see what we did two years ago or last year.

THE Happy birthday boy! We love you Toby! Life is always interesting and joyful
when you're around.
