Owen's Party Day

Owen turned 2 in June, so on Saturday, June 25th - we headed north! We did a few other things that day, but the main reason was to celebrate Owen!

First, we stopped by my Aunt Gloria's house for my cousin Taylor's high school graduation party. I didn't take many pictures, but got to see both Taylor and Colton who graduated this year, so that was wonderful! Congrats to both!

Here are all the boys heading across the street to check things out with Grandpa.


Landon, Austin, Aiden and Steven just playing!


And watch out - here they come!!!!






Of course, Landon and Steven had to check everything out!






Then we headed over to Grandma and Grandpa Easterday's woods to play! Time for the sandbox and trucks!






And of course we had to walk around the pond and look for frogs!






Landon and Grandma did some more investigating!






And Aiden took a short walk with Grandpa and the dogs.






Of course, we had to stay hydrated! It was hot!






And have a snack...yum - orange Push-ups!






Then it was time to rest in the hammock!






Well, maybe not rest - but have some fun!






Waiting to see if Uncle Joe caught anything! Moments later - he did - he caught a tree!!! As he was casting, his hook got stuck in a branch above! Good one, Joe!






Then Aiden tried to nap with Grandpa. No nap, but he stayed there for a bit just relaxing!






Then it was time to party! We had just gotten there and Owen was SO excited! He just kept saying the boys names over and over and laughing! So cute!







Aiden having some fun on the playset!






Boys just hanging out, seeing who's coming.






My cousin Stephen was in from New York and jumped right in to play with the boys! I don't get to see Stephen much, so it was great to catch up and the boys loved playing with him! Thanks for all the laughs, Stephen! :)






Trying to get a cousin picture! I wasn't at the best angle, but it's still great to have all 5 boys in one picture!!!






Aiden found some time to hang out with Aunt Suze and chat!






The boys played "Stick the hat on the Cat in the Hat" and Austin was so excited to win! Way to go, Austin!






Then it was time for cake! Can't you tell Owen is SO excited? I love it!






Yum - a cupcake!!! I can't believe you are 2, Owen!






Landon being crazy!






Austin and Aiden LOVED the cupcakes!! As you can see...






Time for presents! Austin patiently waited to give Owen our present. He was so proud of it and watched him open all of it! Then - he quietly moved on! That was all he wanted to see! :)






I love this picture - Richard with his little mini-me Owen! Father and son reading - precious! It was a book party and Owen got a lot of great books!






Aiden love being pushed by Suze in the swing! :)






Then Stephen was ready to play again! I warned him not to get on the ground or it was over...but he didn't listen! Of course, the boys loved to wrestle, too! Fun!













It was a great day!
