Cade's 2nd Birthday Party!

Cade will turn two on Monday, November 5 so we celebrated with a little party at our house on yesterday!  Cade is kinda obsessed with Mickey Mouse right now so naturally that was the theme for the party.  I wanted to use bright, primary colors and found an invitation from Amanda's Parties To Go and an AWESOME party package from Your Printable Party that I used as inspiration and to make all the printables.

(I made this wreath last year for Cade's 1st Birthday and was able to change out the centerpiece and use it again!)

I forgot to get a group picture while all the kids were still there and attempted later with Lina and Kenlee but Cade took off running every time we got them lined up so...

It is so hard to believe that our baby boy turns TWO tomorrow!  In some ways it feels like we were just headed to the hospital yesterday and in a lot of other ways it feels like he has always been a part of our lives.  We had a great time celebrating yesterday and so appreciate all the friends that came and made the day so special for Cade!  And a HUGE thanks to my Momma who came down and helped us with all the baking, decorating and basically pulling the whole thing off!!!

Blog Catch Up- July through October

Once again, I have been a little MIA from the blog world.  I started grad school in September and so most of my extra attention has been focused on making it through my first semester!  Cade turns 2 this week and we had his party yesterday so I want to get that post written and try to be better about blogging at least once a month!

This post is going to be a huge picture dump and VERY long so I apologize now.  I mainly want it for my own reference and to show Cade later in life.  I will go back and add a little narration to each month soon but at least wanted to get the pictures posted.
