Caden's Birthday

Saturday was Caden's birthday, and we were lucky to be able to share it with him. He is a huge fan of Thomas the Tank Engine, who happened to be on tour here in Calgary last weekend. What a party for a two-year old! I'm not sure just how much of it he will remember, but I do know that he had an amazing day and enjoyed every minute of it!

Caden, Justin, Jen, and Judy rode the train three times around Heritage Park; James, Maggie and I waved them off. I wonder what it will be when Maggie is turning two... what will we have to wait in line for for Maggie? My Little Pony doesn't go on tour. Or the Cabbage Patch Kids... whatever it is, I'm sure we will be just as excited to do it for her as we all were for Caden.

Until then, it would appear that Maggie couldn't have cared less!

There was plenty more to do at the park than just ride a train. There was singing, toy trains to play with, castles to bounce in, and face-painting.

Caden really liked riding in this old fashioned swing. So much so that he nearly fell asleep!

I took these pictures at one of the train track displays. It was both funny and disturbing...

Then it was time to go back home for a wonderful birthday dinner. Caden was so patient all day long to finally get some cake!

And Maggie, well, she was into the party, but obviously mad that she wasn't getting any cake!

She was in a better mood once she found one of Caden's new toys. Forget My Little Pony, looks like she'd rather have a dump truck!
