Joel's Birthday Party

(This post is really late...Joel's birthday was at the end of June....)

We headed over to Todd and Helena's to celebrate Joel's 3rd birthday! There are a lot of pictures in this post, and Scott took most of them for a change.

Checking out Joel's new slide.

Awesome soccer action shot of Jacob.

Todd and Helena had a reptile show come to entertain for the party. Some people (Grandma Miller) spent this portion of the party hiding in the house but mostly everyone really enjoyed it. The boys loved most of animals.

The cousins checking things out before it got started.

What's in there?

Sitting together, waiting for the show to start.

First up, cockroaches!

Tarantula! (I like how Logan is holding his legs close and Jacob is getting out of the way!)

Brave guy petting the spider.

Hedgehog

I think this one was a bearded dragon.

A great picture of our biggest boy.

I forget what this one was; but I think it was the only one that Jacob touched.

The turtle was pretty cute.

Something with a blue tongue...

 And then the snakes came out. I walked away for this part so I'm not sure what they were all called.

Checking out the snake.

Logan wasn't frightened at all.

Wow!

Joel tried it on too.

Grandpa checking out the big snake.

Daddy's turn.

That snake is very close to his face!

 She brought some food for the animals too so the kids got to help feed some of them.

Apparently turtles like strawberries.

 After the reptiles were cleaned up, the celebrations continued with pizza and cake!

Logan and Jacob waiting patiently for cake.

It's a Cars cake for Joel!

Blowing out the candles.

Happy Birthday Joel!
