Second day in a row. No sun.

At least that didn't stop the kids from having a good time.

They played nicely, while I got things together to bake Eli's birthday cake.

Of course daddy took them out to play in the mud, which meant they had to have a bath before lunch time . . .

I guess their shoes will just have to be hosed down outside . . . **shudder**

Amongst all the extras . . . I DID manage to get the cake decorated before the party . . .

with a little help from the birthday boy.

Grandma and Grandpa, Aunt Stacey and Cousin Kasey helped us all celebrate.

And the little man did a good job on blowing out his candles. (Almost too good of a job! He kept blowing them out every time Dave lit them up.)

Since it was his special day, we let him stay up late. He finally made it to bed just a few minutes before midnight. Happy Birthday little man! I'm not looking forward to an early morning tomorrow.
