My parents flew home Monday afternoon leaving two little boys sorely missing two very special play mates.
Eli's birthday isn't until mid May but we decided to celebrate a few weeks early while my parents were around to enjoy the excitement.
I didn't do this party up to the same extent that I have in the past for a few personal reasons, but we did decide to have a small BBQ with a few close friends that have kids that my boys absolutely adore.
Sadly I must admit to taking basically no pictures... how horribly embarrassing, I know!
We kept the food simple, BBQing hotdogs and hamburgers, making a few salads, fruit and veggie trays and chips. I also totally cheated on desserts by purchasing sugar cookies and two bite brownies from our grocery store. I only got out a bowl and put in a slight effort making cake mix cupcakes and from scratch icing.
I had originally planned on doing a train theme decorating with Thomas toys and some fabric I had with Thomas prints, however I forgot (another fail!) so the only aspect of the theme really came in with the party favors which were train whistles, small canisters of M&M mini's and some dee-licious fruit gummies.
Such a little pumpkin!
So hard to believe he's going to be 3 in a few short weeks!
