Abby's 2nd Birthday!

Well as promised here are some pics of Abby's birthday.
To begin, I went a little overboard on the invites. I would think by now it should almost be expected.
I really had fun with them and wanted to keep my 2-year-old audience in mind.

The animals are little puppets and the barn is a pocket they can keep them in.


The actual part was on Saturday afternoon and it was a huge success! We had a fishing pond that consisted of little fishing rods and magnetic fish. the kids had a blast! They loved it when Abby tipped one of the buckets over so she could drink the water...it is her party right?




I also had filled up our swimming pool with ballons to make a ballon pit for the kids to play in. These pictures really don't give it justice...Kevin and Cecilia blew up over 75 ballons for the pool. It was filled to the brim and then the kids just bounced them all out and they flew all over the yard. They had so much fun!




Then there was the cake. I really had a lot of fun planning that. Everything but the barnyard animals were edible...even the rocks. I got some inspiration for it online and the kids really liked picking out their own animal cupcake. Overall there was a lot of playing, cake and presents. What else could a 2-year-old ask for?
