Dane's 2nd birthday extravagansa begins!

Even though Dane is not officially two years old until Monday, the celebrating began yesterday. My Mom, Dad, Grandma, and Aunt Vicki all drove in the cold temps to Rockton so we could all have lunch together at Fibs. It was so special to have everyone here and it was extra special because Saturday was Aunt Vicki's actual birthday. She has just moved back from Florida (I know, why move here in January???) and we are thrilled to have her with us! Also, Grandma just had surgery this week (you can't even tell by looking at her - she's such a trooper!). I am so thankful to have such a wonderful family that would want to make the trip!

After lunch, we headed back to our house for presents, cake, and ice cream. Dane went down for a nap while we put up the decorations for his party later that day. Thank you so much Mom and Aunt Vicki - you did a great job! Dane's third word was "Bob" as in Bob the Tomato from Veggie Tales. A year ago I had no idea who the Veggie Tales characters were but now the dvd's seem to be the only thing he wants to watch. The party theme was an obvious choice!

Soon after family left, our very good friends the Wilsons came for a little pizza party. Heather had made the birthday cakes and did an awesome job, as always. Dane partied his you know what off and dropped like a rock after everyone left. We had a lot of fun just hanging out together. We are truly blessed to have such wonderful friends.

I'll do a separate post with more video and pics.
