Elsie was so excited that it was FINALLY her party day...she had been waiting for a long time! She put on her birthday crown and was ready to celebrate...
Everyone sang Happy Birthday...even though she was being bashful about all the singing, I know she loved it! When it came time to blow the candles out she had to call for auntie Emma to help...2 candles are a lot for one girl to blow out!
Eating the cupcakes...daddy and Elsie made the chocolate cupcakes and mommy frosted them and added the "sparkles" as Elsie calls sprinkles...
Time for gifts...Elsie kept taking auntie Emma's hand and placing it on the gift so she would help open...When it is the kid's birthday's they always let Elsie help...so I guess Elsie was returning the favor! It is so sweet to see Emma and Elsie working together!
Elsie got lots of fabulous gifts...like a new umbrella!
And Magneatos...these are super fun magnet sticks...Elsie loves them!
What a party...Ana and Brandon were nice enough to open their coffee shop for us to use for the little party...There was plenty of room for everyone to spread out!
One more picture of opening gifts...for days before her birthday Elsie would look at toy catalogs and point to everything and say "Birthday!" meaning she wanted it for her Birthday! When we would ask her what she wanted she always reply with "Cake and Poppy!" For some reason she really, really wanted a poppy pillow for her birthday...she has a mind of her own!
Elsie had a very good birthday party...and on her really Birthday last Wednesday she had another Birthday surprise...her aunties Missa and Emma got to spent the night at our house! And Grandma B. came over with gifts...and she got a singing birthday card! Can you possibly think of a better Birthday? Happy Birthday 2 year old girl!
