Bridger's Birthday Bash!

      We were very glad to make it to Utah in time for Bridger's birthday party!  My parents were nice enough to invite everyone over to their house for the event.  We LOVE seeing everyone.  It is SOOO fun for us to be with our family and friends and we LOVE YOU ALL!
      Devin was the creator of the Dump Truck Cake.  (However my mom gets credit for the actual baking of the cake!)  Devin put the final creative touches on it, after spreading the whip cream, he sprinkled some dirt on (cocoa powder). 
      Bridger thought it was awesome.
      Devin had been practicing with Bridger for about a month before his birthday on "blowing".  However, I think he got a little stage fright with so many people around and he forgot how.  This is us all trying to help him blow.  I think he actually did do a little blow, but we got the girls to help him get it out.
      We stuck a big piece of cake in front of him and he didn't know what to do with it.  He poked around at the whip cream for a while, then he tasted a crumb, eventually he picked the whole piece up and went for it.
      Present time!  Bridger was spoiled!  He got everything he never knew he wanted.  So many fun toys and cute clothes.  Thank you to everyone who spoiled him so generously!  We had an incredible gift unwrapping crew so sometimes I missed who a gift was from.  If we missed giving a thanks, please accept our great big THANKS now.  Bridger loves all his toys.  I took about ten minutes of video the other day with him being completely entertained by himself, going to our toy basket, taking out a toy, walking around and playing with it, going for another toy...  So cute.
      Unfortunately my little guy developed a cold on our trip and was sick on his birthday, poor guy.  He meant to be really excited for all his fun friends and gifts.  Hopefully we didn't pass along the germs. 
      Devin also made him these really, really cool tractors.  They are awesome.  Bridger loves them.  He has started making "vmmm" noises when he drives them around on the floor. :)

       Landon pushed Bridger around and around on this Tonka truck.  Bridger thought it was great!
      On Bridger's actual birthday we celebrated by bowling.  He loved it.  His game was trying to run as fast as he could down the lane before we could catch him.  Little stink.

Cabin Fun
      We also made a trip to Utah just a few weeks before Bridger's birthday.  We went to the Bear Lake cabin and went snowmobiling.  Here we were playing the Headband game.
Cool kid.
