On Saturday, 11/19 we had Lydia's 2nd birthday party at our home. One might ask themselves, why that was such a big deal for us.... and it's b/c we invited 17 kids & 11 adults! Despite kids & adults tripping & running into each other, we were still able to feed everyone and
luckily kids were even able to run around outside! :)
Our meal consisted of pork loin, cooked by Papa Jim on his Traeger grill :), potato soup, cheesy macaroni, salad & rolls. And most importantly cake & ice cream :) We had to hide the cake in the laundry room b/c Lydia was pretty insistent that she wanted to eat cake, "NOW."
I was not sure what 'theme' to have for Lydia's birthday party, but when I saw a 'monkey' option in Target :) I knew that was the perfect fit. (She's become a pretty big fan of Curious George :) Jessica Cook ~ 6th St Tasty Treats, in Winthrop made the cake, isn't cute?! :) She loved it and so did I.
Opening presents... 2 pairs of new pink boots from Grammy! She put them on immediately after opening :)

Ohhh! Curious George!! :) |
Yes, Papa Jim, you can hide behind 'Wiam' ~ she is definitely wide enough! ;)
Trying yet again to get a picture of the birthday girl :) This is the result...
The boots matched perfect! :)
The moment she had been waiting for... CAKE!
She had practiced on Wednesday, so she knew what to do, and she did try :) but in the end, she had help from her cousin Blake to blow them out :)
worth the wait!
And believe it or not, we ended the day with the Larson's spending the night...
4 adults and 7 kids all sleeping upstairs :)
