Cohen Turns Two Under the Sea!!!

Wow. What a great day we had!  First of all, we got to share it with so much family.  We haven't been around so much family in a long time.  It was so nice.  Secondly, we got to celebrate the birth of our very special boy, Cohen.   The kids got to play in the ocean for a while...then there was snack time, game time, food time, and finally, present time.  He felt so special. Thank you everyone.

There's the birthday boy with his friend, Henley

Cohen got to meet his cousin Racer for the first time.

Present Time!  So exciting!!!!!!







Everyone was very tired...Lilly fell asleep in Cohen's hand.  Too precious not to show!

Thanks to everyone who spent this special day with us!  Missed everyone else!

Getting Ready for the Big Day!!!

I have so much fun planning parties for my loved ones.  I love to celebrate their special day, especially Cohen's.  I threw this together the week before.  We are on an EXTREMELY tight budget, but I was very pleased with how much I could do with a few decorations from the dollar store.  Oh, of course, there was a little grocery shopping too :)
