After waking to ominous grey skies, we made the call to keep the party at Nickle Lake rather than moving into Grandpa and Grandma Thompson's house in Weyburn for Pace's birthday.
We were rewarded with a beautiful, sunny (if a bit windy) day with a great turnout for the party, delicious burgers and hot dogs cooked expertly by Grandpa Ray, a visit from some distant cousins Pace hadn't seen for awhile and way more gifts than we wanted (or Pace needed!).
We had goody bags for the kids who came *and* the adults too. (One guest said “I've never got a goody bag at a party!”). Pace was very well behaved for most of the day considering all the attention and excitement swirling around him, the sugar entering his body and the lack of naps in the afternoon.
Shea's uploaded a bunch of photos of Pace's big day on Flickr if you're interested.
