Tyler had a Tour de France themed birthday party.
He wanted the family to represent the race.
I made each boy a Tour de Tyler shirt with a sharpie marker (nothing but the best for my son's party) and printed race numbers with sponsors to pin on their backs.
Levi was number 100, Sheldon 101, and Tyler was 111. Then all of his friends were 112 and up. Tyler wanted these numbers since it was his eleventh birthday.
Chris and his friend Dave took the boys for a ride (I mean race) on the Western Chehalis Trail after they had a "time trial".
Safety briefing at the round about.
They were quite the sight through town. Several people asked about our "event."
During the race Chris would have the kids take turns racing ahead for a break away. At the end of this clip you can see Sheldon sleeping in the trailer. Poor little guy was tired.
When they returned to the park, the boys ate pizza then did an obstacle course that simulated the "mountain stage" of the tour.

Sheldon helped Dad a bit then played with the bikes. He loves anything with wheels.
Levi cheered everyone on.
Clearly all the cheering tuckered Levi out. He fell asleep in Annie's arms.
Check out that snazzy cake made by Sharleen.
It was muggy so the cool breeze was fabulous. That is until we tried to light the candles.
Tyler started blowing bubbles for Sheldon. The big kids joined in on the fun.

Happy Birthday Tyler!!! We love you to the moon and back and are so grateful you made us a mom and dad eleven years ago. You are an amazing big brother and have made us so proud.
