Happy Birthday, Oliver!

Can you believe our little Oliver turns 2 years old today?? What a wonderful year it has been! He's such a blessing and getting to be so much fun, too. He is always saying something to make Russ and me laugh; he makes life very colorful and we thank God for him every day. To celebrate his birthday he chose, you guessed it, a Tractor theme. We had a great time with all of our family.
Our resident cake-lady, Grandma Cheryl, didn't disappoint with this cake! It's an Oliver tractor, just like his toy and just like his Halloween costume. (By the way, I am now officially mom's understudy with the cake decorating, and I did the words, the sun, and the dirt on this one. . . you have to start somewhere, right? Someday, I hope to be half the cake lady she is.)
Me and my special boy getting ready for the guests to arrive.
After some appetizers (and a Chief's win!), Oliver was ready to tear into his presents.
Look at that cool Lightning McQueen rolling bag Grandma Cheryl got me!Singing "Happy Birthday to Oliver". . . (He was LOVING the attention, by the way, and continued the song long after everyone else was done singing.)
Blow out your candles, big boy!
