Today is Davis’s 2nd Birthday. We celebrated in Ashland for the weekend with a quick trip for his birthday and Valentine’s day. Friday night, my parents watched the boys while we went to see the acclaimed movie Avatar. I must admit that I only went as a “gift” to Shane for Valentine’s Day (I was in charge of the festivities this year), but I enjoyed the movie and thought it was well done.
Playing the “pillow game” and chutes and ladders with Grandpa and Grandma while we were at the movie.
Saturday morning, we went to a Chinese New Year parade and celebration in Jacksonville. The boys had fun watching the dragons in the parade, except when one came and “charged” toward Landon and scared him to death. Davis liked to dance to the beat of the drum that came with the dragon, but both of their favorite parts was the big dragon blow up slide in front of the children’s museum.
Sitting watching the parade and the dragon that scared Landon. :)

We celebrated Davis’s birthday that evening by opening Davis’s gifts eating a yummy strawberry cake. My mom also had a couple fun Valentine’s activities for the boys, including marble painting some valentines and making valentine sugar cookies.

Love the post. Definitely following all of the blog posting rules! I don't know if you notice, but Davis has a large amount of sugar cookie dough he is about to put in his mouth in the first pic under the sugar cookie section. How much of that dough did you let that little porkchop eat?
sounds like a perfect celebration. love those tonka trucks that will last for years and years! happy bday little buddy!
