An Early Birthday Party






















Jackson's 2nd birthday isn't until next Monday September 14th but this weekend I have to go to a dental seminar in Asheville. Since no one else from my office is going with me, Ritchie is going to go so I don't have to drive so far by myself. Anyway, we decided to go ahead and have Jackson's party on labor day weekend since we will be late getting back this sunday.

We decided just do to family this year, so my parents and grandparents, as well as Ritchie's parents and grandparents were all there, along with our brothers and sisters of course. He had such a good time. We had been to walmart about a week before the party and he saw a blue power wheels four-wheeler and that is all he has talked about. Most things he sees he wants, by the time we are out of the store he has forgotten about them, but not this. He kept saying "Jackson have it," and every time we asked him what he wanted for his birthday he said "new four." He has had a little one since he was about 10 months old and he had rode that thing to death. His feet are too big now to even fit on the foot rests so he stands on the seat and pushes the button. He was so excited when he saw his daddy come around the side of the house with his "new four." He rode it all afternoon. My brother, Tee, also gave him a chainsaw and some safety goggles. Since then he has tried to cut off everybody's leg, cut down trees, and even cut up bugs outside. The goggles he loves and even threw a fit to wear them while he was eating dinner that night. Of all the things mama got him, he loved her card the best. It is a spongebob card that sings happy birthday and he has opened it a million times. All in all I think he had a great 2nd birthday!
