Happy TWO!

It's hard to believe our baby is turning TWO!!!

In the evenings we can often see hot air balloons from our backyard and Emily gets super excited about them. So, we decided to have a hot air balloon themed birthday party.

Getting ready for the party!

I'm always thankful for all the help!

They make cupcakes like this possible!

Auntie Kimmie came up with this cute birthday memento!

Two peas in a hot air balloon!

Cousins!

It's fun to celebrate with friends!

Ethan enjoyed playing with Isla!

Sweetness!

Mmmm cupcakes!

They were supposed to hit balloons into the air with the pool noodles, but the balloons kept popping on the grass. So, the uncles came up with a new game, pool noodle fighting!

Looking all grown up with her birthday present.

Happy birthday sweet girl!

The next day we decided to hang out at Poway Lake and do the paddle boats.

I definitely picked the right paddle boat!

Happy camper with grandpa!

Now Katie is at the helm!

Auntie Jo and Camdyn!

Cam and Uncle James!

 

We should have rented our paddle boats for half an hour, but we had decided to rent the boats for an hour. After twenty minutes, the paddlers were tired! Thankfully, there was a small puddle of water on the floor of our paddle boat to keep Emily occupied.

Selfies!

We had to finish off our weekend with an outdoor movie!

What a great weekend celebrating our little girl!
