Carter turned 2 yesterday and we had a great time for his birthday. I let him pick his "theme" for the party by having him pick a pack of character plates at walmart. He picked Mickey mouse and was soooo excited about it. We had a little party that Samantha planned; she even made tickets for everyone. We had dinner then opened presents and played duck duck goose and pin the tail on the donkey. Duck duck goose just turned into the kids all running around in circles every time goose was said. After that we had cake and ice cream. The cake turned out really good this year. I can't take total credit because I gave Aaron a picture of Mickey and he drew it with a tooth pick on the cake then I frosted it. It's a good thing Aaron has artistic talent because I don't have any!
We just love Carter and we're glad he's in the family.
Ryan made a "birthday cake castle" for Carter and it actually stayed up for quite a while. Usually it is knocked down by Carter much to Ryan's dismay.
Samantha also had her first piano recital. She did a wonderful job. Here she is playing a duet with her teacher (up on the housetop)
