Rachel's 2nd birthday party

We had an awesome day yesterday as we celebrated Rachel's 2nd birthday. Mother Nature was good to us and it was a beautiful sunny day. Here are some of the pictures from the celebration...

The cake my friend Linda & I made for Rachel

Rachel helped me blow up the balloons.

This is one of my favourite pictures from the day. We looked over and there was Rachel sitting at her little table with her doll having a drink.

I swear she was happy...just very serious in this picture

Time to open presents. This bubble machine is SO COOL!!! Just put the bubbles in the dispenser and turn it on...my kind of toy :)

She loved opening the presents. And check out that skirt - isn't that adorable with the ruffles? Only a 2 year old can pull that off! ha ha

"ohhh a doll!"

Pinata time - the kids & Cha Cha had fun getting the candy out of Elmo

Eating a candy necklace

Yummy!

The bubble machine in action - I told you it was cool
Rachel was a good girl this afternoon and helped out with the Thank You notes so now we can go mail them. Hope everyone else had a great weekend, too!
Happy Birthday Rachel - we love you!!!!

Looks like such a fun party!!! And, let me tell you, that Elmo cake takes me back to MY childhood! I'm pretty certain I have a Cookie Monster cake that looked just like it... :)
