We had Abbie's 2nd Brithday Party this weekend.
Since it's summer, what better way to celebrate than a water party?
Unfortunately the Birthday Girl was feeling under the weather. (Lesson Learned: A happy healthy Birthday Girl is much more important than a fresh birthday cake and $6 in balloons.) She watched the rest of the gang have fun. And have fun they did!!
See the guy on the right? He didn't stay there very long.
He and Carl let their inner children come out and had a pretty decent water war.
Another successful homemade birthday cake! As we were looking at pictures of cakes, Abbie chose a "pink butterfly." Her favorite part was the fruit snacks. Those were Carl's idea.
Abbie and her balloons and presents.
She was STOKED to find fruit snacks in one of her presents! Her reaction was hilarious! She was very kind and shared some with the other party guests.
Abbie hit it big in the dress-up department this year. 2 Grass Skirts, 6 Leis, One Fairy Headband (not pictured,) 3 pairs of Sunglasses, a Glitter Baton and a Fairy Wand.
This was possibly her happiest moment the whole afternoon. Well, second to finding the fruit snacks.
Carl snagged this photo of Brady testing out the birthday goods. Brady is running away to his room to hide!
We got this from Grandma Julie. Abbie loves to help sweep the kitchen.
Peek a Boo!!
Abbie (and any other children), I promise to reschedule your party if you aren't feeling well. It's more important to me for you to enjoy your day. We love you. You bring sunshine into our lives.
