We were running late (as usual). The party started at 1pm and we were going to try to be there by 12pm so we could get all of the decorations set up. When we finally got there at 12:45pm there were 2 families already occupying the pavilion that we had rented. One family was almost finished with their party and asked if they could just finish their cake and open presents while we got ready. We said absolutely! They were sweet and even opened presents in the grass to get out of our way. They totally did not have to do that because they were not in our way. The other party was for a baby shower and those people were not so nice. Long story short... they left. We finally had all the decorations up at 1:45pm... 45 minutes after the party had already started! Whoops! Maybe I had over-planned a bit?
We covered water bottles with houndstooth duct tape

He was all smiles once he was warm in the sun! Touchdown!
Once he did "Touchdown!" and everybody cheered it was all over!
This is all he did. He's all about attention!
