Tysen's Train Party

We celebrated Tysen's 2nd birthday this evening with a little party.  Uncle Brian, Aunt Megan, Mitchy the Pizza Guy, and Erin came over for supper and cake.  (Mitch is not really a pizza delivery guy, he actually works with Matt and Brian at OSU but the first time he came to our house, he was wearing a ball cap and Alexa thought he was bringing the pizza!  The name has stuck and we all get a giggle when both Alexa and now Gavin call him that.)



I decorated our front door for our birthday boy.

I dressed the kids in their Oshkosh bibs (or train pants as the kids call them) for the special train-themed party.

The Candy Train

Some treat bags I made for our guests to take home.

The birthday banner I made for Tysen

Alexa was excited to put party hats on everyone.


Even Gabbi

Cupcakes inside the train tracks!  The kids loved this, but they couldn't hardly keep their fingers out of the frosting!
I made the railroad crossing cupcake toppers and my friend, Carrie, made the cupcakes and cake.  She did a wonderful job!  I was very pleased with how they turned out.

The beautiful cake!  It was delicious.

The birthday boy patiently waiting for us to sing "Happy Birthday."
 
Blowing out his candle
(We decided to move his candle from the large cake to a cupcake just in case  he didn't blow very cleanly!)



Baby, eat cake!











He opened up this package of batteries (that went along with his puzzle game) and he just stared at them and said, "Wow!"



Alexa pushed Tysen around on his new Thomas Train toy.



 




(Tysen is so worn out that he can't hardly keep his eyes open!)

Happy Birthday, Tysen!  We love you!
