Birthday Bash

This will be a rather lengthy post - so I apologize in advance. I will try to be relatively witty and sprinkle in some adorable pictures.


Here is an unrelated, but adorable picture of the fam. How cute are the girls in their leopard!!

This past Sunday evening we had the girls birthday party. We had it at a Rec Center that has a soft play room for kids 5 and under. The kids seemed to have a blast playing in there. Poor little Audrey was running and playing so hard that her face got super red (I think she may have gotten that from me, though I try hard not to exert myself that much!) As always my pictures are only so-so, but they seem to capture the atmosphere pretty well. The ball pit was a HUGE hit!


A picture that shows the overall feel of the room.

Ball pit fun!

After the hour of play, we moved to the party room for pizza and cupcakes. We had an Elmo theme which was a huge hit for all of the kids. How did our parents entertain us without Elmo's World (la, la, la, la)?

Red Elmo icing seemed like a good idea...


But not so much!

We ran out of time to open presents at the party (in retrospect, Thank Heavens as it is not a quick process with 2 year olds!!) So Monday after work(D's obviously) the girls opened their presents. They loved every single thing that they got (thanks so much!!)...though I have secretly hidden some of them to parcel out over the next 12 months to keep our lives exciting!

Too cute, great subject matter. I laughed out loud at the red icing mouths and the cook's gear.

What fun! I was thinking Elmo theme for Samuel's 2nd but may have to rethink the red icing.
