Birthday Photo Overload

We were blessed with so many family members able to travel to help us celebrate our son's birthday -- many over 3 hrs of driving to get to the party at our house on the gravelly road.

We started a few new birthday morning traditions -- a decorated doorway and checking his height on the new family ruler Dad made for our living room.

Lunch

Opening Presents

Cake!

Other fun -- games, coloring and a visit to an ice castle

It was such a wonderful day, though this momma was tired by the day's end.  The birthday boy had so much fun!  (The only not fun part of the day was when he fell during an attempt at sledding.  The hill was icy and his face ended up with a big scrape.  There were many tears but thankfully its healing fine and not bothering him.)

So thankful for extended family and friends who loves our son so much.
