Allie turns two!

Hard to believe that our little Allie is two! Her birthday was this past weekend and we had such a fun day celebrating. She started the day with "breakfast in bed," and then we headed to a city carnival and rode the carousel. In the afternoon while Allie was sleeping, we decorated for her party. Aubrey and I finished her cake and set out her presents. Thanks to everyone who sent cards and packages -she felt very loved! Adam and Alexis went out to get what Allie has wanted most for her birthday...balloons! She was so excited when she woke up and loved her party. Right in the middle of opening presents, she reached out and stuck her fingers in her cake; why not! It looked tasty and it was her cake! After presents, we went out for pizza (one of her favorite foods) and then came back for cake and ice cream and an episode of Mickey Mouse. It was a fun day and Allie was full of enthusiasm for all of it. She is happy to be two (altough if you ask her, she'll tell you she is three). We love having Allie in our family! She has always been such a joy to us.

Your girls are growning too fast! I love spending time with them! (Allie is such a joy to have in class!) I am excited for Summer to have all my swim buddies back over!
(If we have a good rain storm when I can go looking for puddles, I will for sure come find your girls!!!)
