We celebrated Charlie's second birthday yesterday. It was a Cars theme (you know, Cars the Disney movie). He got a lot of gifts--a ton of hot wheel type cars and a few clothes. There were about 25 people at his party. Matt grilled hamburgers and hot dogs. The rest of the lunch was very good--Nikki made her great potato salad, Matt made his wonderful version of baked beans and Matt's step-grandmother brought broccoli raisin salad, but the variation was she used cranraisins instead of regular raisins. There were cupcakes for dessert. And all of the children attending received treat bags and a car made out of gum, peanut butter cups, peppermint patties, and miniature Hershey bars. There was even a "stoplight" treat made out of graham crackers, frosting and red, yellow and green M&M's.
I managed to get Charlie down for a nap, but he really didn't want to leave all of his new toys. I know he was exhausted by the end of the evening. He really did have a good time with all of his friends, aunts, uncles, cousins, etc. It is hard to believe that he is two years old already!
I will post some pictures very soon.
