Time TWO Party!!

Katelyn had such a blast at her 2nd birthday party!  We kept things simple this year and had it at a park right down the street.  It's such a beautiful park with big trees, lots of open space, and great play equipment.  And since one of Kate's favorite things these days is going to the park (mainly because of the slide and the swings), it was perfect.

The moment we got there she was giddy with excitement, seeing all of her aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends.

It's all about the slide...the bigger the better!




We grilled burgers and hotdogs, chips, and oranges (her favorite)



I had fun with a few decorations.  I learned out to make these fun tissue paper pom poms and a "lolliplant" on Pinterest!  We used her birthday banner from last year.  After the party I hung the pom poms up in her room, she loves looking at them!





Grammie made all the cupcakes-Strawberry and Funfetti, yum!



You wouldn't believe how many attempts at a family pic we made here!  And this is the best we could do!  If we can get one of the kiddos looking, we're lucky!


She had fun opening presents.  This was the expression on her face for each one!  (Followed by a glare at Sydney who...how dare her...wanted to play with the new toys!)


Auntie Shell and Lukers


The Garlands..wow that sounds funny!


Uncle Paul


It was a great day!
