Happy 2nd Birthday Keagan!

With the Nemo theme this year - due to Keagan's fascination with his fish - his party was a success.  It was a beautiful day, unlike his actual day of birth where we got about 2 feet of snow at home.  Keagan and his friend Max played outside in the yard most of the day.  That is until Keagan decided to start opening presents.  He loves all of his toys and the best part is still actually opening the presents. 

Keagan had a ball getting ready for his party.  Grandma and Grandpa Hanson flew in to town the Thursday before his birthday.  That was a huge present in and of itself.  Grandpa and Keagan are always inventing new silly games to play while Grandma is fun to play and snuggle with.  The night before his birthday we got him some balloons and these were the best gift.  He loved the "balls" as he calls them and would tackle the balloons.  Amazingly he did not pop any of them :)

I love the car hauler you got me John!

On the day of his birthday Keagan had lots of fun with his best friend John and expert cake decorator Grandma Diane.  Although it appears in the following picture that Keagan needed help with blowing out his candle, Mom was just posing.  Keagan actually loved blowing out his candle and we had to relight it 3 times it was so much fun.  And to be honest we had to put the candle in the left over cake and sing to him everyday and let him blow out the candle until the cake was gone.

This was Max's 1st time on a horse and he loved it!

Of course we could not forget to have the requisite pony rides.  Max, Libby and McKenzie all loved riding our pony Anne around the yard.  Keagan was too busy opening presents but loved his new little saddle the next day!
