Wednesday was our big boy's birthday, but we celebrated on Monday. Below is the birthday spread...
And the waiting party hats...
And the waiting decorated train cake...
And then the fun began after dinner. First with a game of "Chugga, chugga, toot, toot!" (a train version of 'Duck, duck, goose'...
Tia & Helena race around the circle...(it was hard to keep all the kids from jumping up every time another person was chosen!)
Both Tia & Isaiah thoroughly enjoyed the head tapping part...
...and then on to musical chairs (another difficult game to teach to a combination of toddlers & preschoolers)
And the last game was a relay of scooping 'coal' for the engines. The coal was 'hot', so they weren't allowed to use their fingers...
Uncle Phil racing Helena...
The birthday blow...
Pretty excited kids ready to dig in for the candy...
Yup, it was delicious...
Lena's turn at the pinata with help from Grandma...
Isaiah never wanted to end his turn...
Birthday bash...
Happy Birthday, dearest Judah! Our little bundle of 'praise' is growing bigger by the day. We praise our God for your sweetness, for your sing-song-y attitude, for your willingness to help in many ways. We will continue to pray that your heart will be filled with the praises of your God, as the words to your favorite song:
"Praise God from Whom all blessings flow,
Praise Him, all creatures here below,
Praise Him above, ye heavenly hosts,
Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost!"
"Praise God from Whom all blessings flow,
Praise Him, all creatures here below,
Praise Him above, ye heavenly hosts,
Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost!"
