Happy Birthday Chauncey

We celebrated Chauncey's birthday this weekend at this house with a few of his friends. Despite the cold and wet weather. The kids had a blast.


We tried to get him to pose, but he was more intereste din the train on his cake.

A lil play time with the kids as I attempt to pick Chauncey up. We had to abort this activity as the kids seemed interested in other things, ie riding the trucks.

The boys again playing with the balloons.

It looks like I am having more fun than the kids here as I grab all the candy out of the pinata. Chauncey pulled the string to release the secret door, but the candy did not fall out, so I had to give it a helping hand.
