Hailey turned 2 on October 4th and we celebrated by having our friends and family over for a BBQ. It was so much fun and we enjoyed celebrating with everyone.
Here are some pictures of the party, it was a gorgeous 70 + afternoon and all went according to plan. It was a very special day. The theme was "Safari" as Hailey is very much into animals and can name each one along with what sound that they make. She picked it out and has enjoyed playing with the decorations as they are still up around the house. She also helped me make her sign that she is holding in the birthday card and made one of her own.
My Grandparents (Hailey's Great-Grandparents) even showed up, which was quite special as it is a long drive up for them.
What I learned from this party is to take twice as many pictures or have a dedicated photographer as most don't turn out, and have a plan for the entire cake process prior to party festivities. I could not have done this with out Stephanie's help. THANK YOU! What I learned from the 1st birthday was to make sure that we take the time to get a family shot. (we didn't get one last year,but we did this year!)
We ended the evening by opening a few presents with family. She had a great time and was quite spoiled. She received a kitchen from "Gamma" and trike from Grampa Ken and Grandma Lori, Kitchen Stuff from Grampa Dexter, and an easel with art stuff from Grandma Linda and and Grampa George.
It was a perfect day! Happy Birthday Baby :) Thank you for making life special.
This is a picture of Hailey right before bed, she crashed at 7:00pm. (Bedtime is usually 8)
