An Early Birthday for Evie

Nana, Granddaddy, Hoody, and Grandpa gave Evie a train set for her 2nd birthday. 

Papa and Granddaddy had a great time putting it together!

 

Hot dogs for dinner!

Ike wants to know where his hot dog is.

Happy 2nd Birthday, Evie!

What a beautiful birthday girl!

Oh, boy!! Evie's so happy about her train set.
