Bo's Big Birthday Bash

On Friday, Bo turned two. We celebrated with dinner out at his favorite local spot. But, today was his big party with cake, ice cream, presents and visits from his aunts, uncles, cousins and grandparents.

When Ellie saw the presents sitting on the back porch, she said, "ho, ho, ho." Although Santa never arrived, she had a big smile on her face thinking it was already Christmas again.

Bo had a ball today and he now has lots of new toys to play with. Ellie also cleaned up with a few gifts of her own. Both kids have a real sweet tooth, so Bo's cake didn't stand a chance.

Next month we'll celebrate the day we became a family. Then, Ellie gets to celebrate turning two in early April. We have much for which to be thankful.
