Happy Birthday Carter!!!

There's the birthday boy with his Thomas the Train balloon.  The theme of his party was airplane, however it is hard to find airplane decorations.  So, a "choo, choo" is what he got.  He was very happy!

Waiting for the guests to arrive, Carter read a book to Grandpa and Ruth.

Praying before lunch.

Opening presents with Daddy.  Thank you everyone for the great gifts!!  Carter has a hard time deciding what to play with next.  He loves them all!!

Carter's airplane cake.  Yes, I made it and yes, it is sliding off to the right.  It is a crashing airplane cake.  :)

The whole crazy family enjoying cake.  Carter is, obviously, the only one who knew what camera to look at!  Thanks for taking pictures, Uncle Matt!!!

enjoying the cake! Of course, he is eating with a fork.  He is very neat!

Although Carter went to bed late, after 2 1/2 hours, we decided that we shouldn't let him sleep until 5.  I went to check on him and this is what I found.  He was obviously reminiscing about the great party!
