Drew's "Choo-Choo" Birthday Party

We celebrated Drew's 2nd birthday this past weekend with a "Choo-Choo" birthday party. He was so excited and whenever we would talk about his upcoming birthday he would say "Choo-choo" and "cake." We were joined by lots of family (Gigi and Grandpa, Grandma Joyce and Grandpa Jack, Auntie Randi, Papaw and Mimi Eesha) and had a wonderful weekend! Here are some pictures that I think tell the story better than I can.

The party set-up in the dining room
Drew checking out the table

Train cookies (Drew helped make them)

"I'm so tall...look at my birthday party!"
This is my cake (finger in the icing)
"Cheeee-se" (such a goober, but I love him!)
Drew making the train whistle blow on "Dada's choo-choo" (video)


Time for presents...
His own camera (from Gramps and Aunt Becca)
Clifford the Big Red Dog (from Mommy and Daddy)
"No, Momma...I can do it..." (yep, he's definitely turning 2!)
Farm animal puzzle (from Auntie Randi)
Reading his card
Train cup and truck from Gigi and Grandpa
Tool set (from Papaw and Mimi Eesha)
My own screwdriver
Drew's new power drill
Drew's new kitchen (from Gigi, Grandpa, Grandma Joyce, and Grandpa Jack)
He LOVES it!
It even has a grill
Drew's cake (made by me - just like last year)

Doesn't he look so grown up???

wow! what a fun party you had! Cade has been saying choo-choo party and sing..... too cute!

Your cake turned out awesome. Did you create the design yourself? I have one those icing guns- just not sure if I have the patience to do all that detail!

I just saw that you have 39 days left~ that is crazy! He'll be here in no time!
