Party Like It's 2009

Here are the pictures from Cole's birthday party. His birthday was on Saturday November 7th, so we were lucky enough to get to celebrate on his actual birthday. Thank you so much to everyone who helped us celebrate and for loving Cole so much! A very special thank you to Diane Drake who took all of these wonderful pictures for us...visit her website at dianedrakephotography.blogspot.com

He didn't have any trouble diving into his cupcake. You'd think maybe he had done it before...Grandma and Grandpa Hoover, do you have a confession to make?:)

Opening his present from big brother Blake--the night before Cole's party Blake told me he wanted to go to Target and get a gift for Cole. It was so sweet and sincere, maybe they do actually like each other!

The best picture of the night--Cole was definitely "taken aback" when the monkey popped out of the box!

Telling everyone "Thank you!" and being a little embarrassed about it!

This one is for you, Aunt Jane! What a great picture of Dustin and Kanin! My dad made this wonderful rocking horse for Cole. With all the commotion, Cole wasn't too sure he wanted to sit in it for a picture. But since then, I can't keep him out of it. What a special gift...thank you, Grandpa!

Sliding with Aunt Tara...

Blake enjoying the party...who would've guessed it would have been 70 degrees outside in November!
