I will FIRST say that our sweet and feisty little Colin turned 2 last Sunday! Doesn’t seem possible does it? Wasn’t he just born? He keeps me on my toes at all times. He’s matured into a kind yet rambunctious, independent yet needy, two-year-old, with absolutely no shortage of spunk. We celebrated his birthday at Gorgeous Millie with over 50 of our closest friends and family. It was my best party to date. Colin had a blast and the 2 empty bottles of champaigne would say that the adults had a nice time too. I decorated the room with a Cars theme (Colin's favorite). Gorgeous Millie provided a brand new tire swing, car ramp and car-wash tent. The place was decked out to delight a car-crazed, 2-year-old boy.
In other news, David and I celebrated our 8th wedding anniversary. We took full advantage of having my family in town for Colin's birthday party, and we checked OUT of the birthday festivities and checked INTO the Hilton for some R&R. We don't get out as a couple very much, and we were way overdue some adult time. It was a fabulous evening in the company of old friends. There’s just something special about old friends. These are friends of David's from grade school and friends of mine from college. They remind me of being younger and staying up late, so much so that we pretended to be young and stayed up really late, or maybe it was early. We ate, we drank, we laughed, we drank some more, took a few pictures, laughed really hard, and had an absolutely wonderful time.
The next night was Colin's actual birthday so we took him to Chuck E Cheese (Colin's request.) He starts out by asking for "pizza" then "play" and the last clue is "mouse." Put the puzzle together and you get a 2-year old requesting a restaurant that he has only been to once - I guess it really made an impression.
