Bentley's Birthday Party!

On Sunday the 15th we hosted Bentley's 2nd Birthday party...
*Over 5 LBS of white chocolate.
*10 Bags of popcorn.
*50 favor bags - which took over 6 hours to make.
*Hand rolling & dipping 3 bags of pretzel rods in chocolate & sprinkles.
*6 Different places to try and get the flowers I wanted ~ and almost 30 arrangements I did myself.
*Endless comments from my husband about how I am "WEIRD" and "CRAZY."
*Fingertips covered in dry crazy glue & blue paint still stuck in my nails from random crafts.

The smile on my baby boy's face and the fun he had ~ even if he doesn't remember all of the details his Momma went bananas about = PRICELESS.

The Birthday Boy in his special shirt...


The food spread & cake...



A few attempts at a pic with the Birthday Boy ~ who was VERY distracted...



Play time ~ which included bubbles, throwing water balloons against the shed, and the sandbox, and Bentley's new bubble lawn mower from Auntie Cole & Uncle Lance...




















Then it was time for the very sweaty party boy to open presents...with lots of help...












Time for cake ~ yes, I gave him a little help and smashed his face in it!














Then it was back outside to play more ~ the kids loved Bentley's new sprinkler from Auntie Currie!








More sandbox...in wet clothes...


Sissy enjoyed herself, too...and we put on our matching outfits (non-planned)...








After most of the party guests left, things got a little crazy and the kids lost their pants...and Bentley lost his diaper.  He also quickly learned the trick with the hose that Uncle Jeff taught him; and also did some naked lawn mowing...

















He got hit square in the bum with a nice wiffle ball shot from Ty...and had a nice mark to show it...


The cousins sat in the pool on Auntie's watch...



Hurley was a good party guest, too...


And after a LONG day with no nap, it was time to be his scavenger self and eat off Auntie's plate and get some snuggles before bed...



We had a GREAT 2nd party!!!
