Paxton & Cort's California Birthday Bash

We decided this year to have a birthday party for Paxton down in California since all of our family is down here. And since my best friend and Paxton share the same birthday (exactly 20 years apart), i figured, lets combine them! We had their party on Saturday, May 11th. Yes, 13 days before their actual birthday but that was the only weekend we could come down to Cali. So i made all the decorations, with help from my cousin Nikki. I laminated all the decorations, made them matching shirts and made all the food! It was a blast. Thanks for everyone who came! It was great to see all of you and since I'm horrible with "thank you" cards.... THANK YOU!!!
