Clara and Will's Celebration!!!
We had a super fun birthday weekend celebration. We decided to have Will and Clara's birthday parties together since it is such a busy time of year. It's amazing that we had a house full of people so soon after moving here. Thanks to all for accepting us and we are sooo lucky to have our buddies, The Bradley's, here with us!!
We gave the kids their big gifts the morning of the party so that they had a chance to play with them before we made them share. Clara loved her kitchen, but went right over and tried to take over the tool bench. The drill was a big hit and the most fought over item. Will loves his tool bench and tools! Not quite as much as his cars and trucks though.
We had a busy day getting ready for the party. We are so lucky that our wonderful babysitter, Jess, had decorated a ton for us! Not sure we would have been ready without her help! We ordered the cakes from Hy-Vee and they turned out awesome!!! We were thrilled. So much better than me slaving over a cake that turns out lopsided!! Haha!
The kids did great during the party. Everyone had some kids their own ages around, so they mostly played and did their own thing. It was just super busy during dinner and cake. Glad to have a basement to send the craziness to!
Clara had been staring at her cake all night and begging anyone and everyone to give her some. As soon as we set it down in front of her she started picking off the bushes and trees and eating the frosting. We had to stop her so we could sing Happy Birthday. Will also started mauling his cake immediately. There was no stopping him!
We had a wonderful night and are so happy to have some friends :) A great celebration!
