Party Time!

Can you say YUM? Someone in this house turned two this week, and her sister had a baptism, so.... Let's Party!

With a little help from my friend Kelly and her 'Whim Wham' parties, we have a party ready to go!

Gene and Kristy made the trek from Iowa to help us celebrate!

And some of the Smith family gathered for a photo op! Looking good!

Caroline entertained the boys outside!

While Hannah and Leah found the food line inside!

Cousins dined in the lower level.

And this little girl sure felt special today!

Present time!

Caroline entertained everyone while she opened gifts.

And her new laptop "puter" from Anne, Betty and Darlene is a favorite gift!

Caroline decided that sitting on top of Brady was the perfect spot to stop and read.

Happy Birthday Dear Caroline, .... She smiled the whole time we sang.

Now she's getting into that cupcake!

But she also demonstrated some very ladylike attempts at eating it.

Mostly the icing made it inside, and of course the ice cream, too.

Lucy found that Wendy had the perfect shoulder to snuggle on.

Aunt Kristy catches up with Ellie.

Lucy gets some more snuggles from Aunt Kristy too!

It was a busy day but a great time was had by all. The weather turned out great, and we spent the day with people we love dearly. We couldn't be more blessed. It doesn't get much better than this.
