Happy Birthday Tyler!

On Saturday, our friends from church (the Fryers) had a birthday party for their little boy, Tyler. Tyler was turning 2, as Josie will soon be doing. I knew he was getting a swing set for this birthday, and I was anxious to see how Josie would enjoy it. We've been thinking of getting her one, too. She just loves to be outside! (And I love giving her an outlet for all that bottled up energy!!!!)
I think this was one of the funnest birthday parties I'd ever been to! When we got there, we were ushered out to the backyard and it was like a carnival for toddlers! There was a bubble machine blowing bubbles all over the yard. Besides the new swing set, Tyler also got a new sandbox with a picnic table attached and a John Deere wagon. Our other little friends Zoey, Nathan, and Natalie were all there and they all had the BEST time!!!! It was so much fun to watch them play and enjoy everything!
I'm pretty sure Josie is going to be a tomboy like her Mommy. She LOVED the sandbox! I finally gave up on keeping her out of it and let her plop down right in the middle of it! (When I took her shoes off later, sand went everywhere!!!!) She did a great job climbing up the ladder for the slide. She still needs a little help, but it won't be long before she can do it all by herself! She also loved the wagon rides and the swing, of course. By the time we left to head home, she was all tuckered out! It was a challenge to keep her awake until we got home for her nap!
So, now we are shopping for a swing set for Josie's birthday!

  1. If you can, go ahead and spend the money on a big swing set like a nice wooden fort type one. We bought a small one for Faith at age 3 and her and John Derrick are just too big for it now.
