Rainy day Birthday

The Boy loves to be outside, so we always plan everything to be out of doors.  Normally it's not a problem, but we got seriously rained out for his third birthday party.  What do you do with a digger and construction party when you can't have a dirt pile?

Beans.  Lots and lots and LOTS of beans.



The construction hats in the back all have other things that the kids added to the pool as they got bored...we had dried pasta, cooked pasta, paper easter grass, rice, bay leaves, cinnamon sticks, and more!

Construction Zone - hard hats required!







My sweet Birthday Boy!




The bean pool was definitely the favorite for most of the kids, but we also put together a play dough and train table.




We put together an oval track from his geotrax and added a play dough ocean, sand, construction dirt, and grass.  And lots of ocean critters, animals, and construction gear, of course!




Digger cake :)






Happy boy with all of his friends and family...and a few presents.
