A friend told me today that God answers the little prayers too. Absolutely. Earlier this week there was an 80% chance of rain today. I called the train rental people and they told me to "wait it out". I am not one for rescheduling things... mainly because I'm doing good to get them done the first time. So I just prayed all week - that Mattox's party would be great. I personally needed a good fun day too. Then by Thursday, the chance of rain went down to 20 and 10% and then sunshine and a high of 70 degrees. Hallelujah! So the train came. And I was not feeling well Thursday and Friday, so thank you Gigi for everything you did while I rested!!!!!
Thank you to everyone who came! He has opened every single gift and played with them all after his nap! I think the kids loved the train - but oh my - Mattox really LOVED the train. He cried when it left. He surprised us by blowing out the candles - we really didn't think he knew how yet. I'll let the pictures do the talking. Happy 2nd Birthday sweetie pie! I ordered a DIY kit from Etsy and printed everything myself = super easy and cheap!

I did not post any of his friends because I never know if their moms are ok with their child's picture being on the internet. so i try to leave those out. AND I could not get Mattox to stand still for 1 second to take a decent picture of him smiling... he only had eyes for the choo choo! Thank you again everyone for making his day so special!
