Cody's 2nd Birthday Weekend

We were super excited again this year for Cody's birthday because my fantastic friends came for a visit and planned it around Cody's Birthday and the 2nd annual Bark & Bowl. The Bark & Bowl is a fund raiser for Canine Cancer research. Our friends the Pikes lost both there Golden Retrievers to cancer 2 years ago (within 3 months of each other) and has made this cause their life's passion and we help out as much as possible.

~Our first day with the girls was spent at the beach, then the pool and finally The Bark & Bowl. Cody was so excited to have "His Girls" here with him. All weekend he was saying... girls, girls, friends, friends. It was adorable to watch. My Mom helped us out with the kids so we could enjoy the night out with the adults.

Super Water Slide

~The next day was his party. I had rented a blow up water slide for the kids. They just loved it. Up and down the went for at least an hour at a time and someone had to stay at the top to help Cody up (he was a bit little for the last 2 steps) So Mama to the rescue... A great day it was and a good time had by all of us

~The girls last day here was spent lounging by the pool and visiting. I am truely blessed to have the most amazing friends in our lives. No matter where our lives lead us we always make time to be there for one another and I have no fear that Cody will be as close with them as I am....
