On May 27th Nathan turned two years old. The weekend consisted of two parties, one with the Nelson relatives on Saturday and the other with Nathan's friends on Sunday. Both were loud and action packed, with the relatives being slightly louder than the kids.When Nathan first woke up on the big day we let him open the presents that my parents and brothers sent him, followed by the gift that we got him. He enjoyed all of his gifts, but he especially liked the Twist Trike given to him from my parents. Later on that day Heather, GG (Nathan's Great Grandmother), Ryan, Mandy, and the kids came over for dinner. The rest of the Nelson relatives showed up for dessert and cake and to give more gifts to the Birthday Boy.
The party on Sunday was fun for all the kids. They played with Nathan's toys and each other very well, I can't recall any fights or crying. Gifts were given and cupcakes were eaten. There's nothing like getting kids all hopped up on sugar and letting them go crazy. There isn't a whole lot to report about the party other than I'm glad they only happen once a year. I guess soon to be twice with the new baby on the way.

The picture in the top right corner is of Nathan when he was very excited about his Chocolate Cookie Cake, note the crazed look in his eyes. Bottom left is Nate, Paige, and Jayda playing with Nathan's toys. The pile of toys is now twice as big following all the presents he received on the weekend. Bottom center is of Nate eating his cupcake from at kid party. Lastly is a picture of Nathan and all the girls getting ready to open presents. In the foreground of that photo is Paige and Jayda assisting Nathan by opening a few for him, that was very nice of them.
