Birthday Girl


Where has the last year gone?? It seems like only yesterday we were celebrating Hannah's 1st birthday, and here we are a whole year later celebrating her 2nd. I had no idea how quickly time could pass until we had her. Now I can barely keep up.


This year's birthday celebration was a bit scaled down from last year. We had both sets of grandparents, Uncle Todd, Aunt Courtney, cousin Kara, and were even fortunate to also have 2 of her 5 great-grandparents join us as well! For our small space, it was still a pretty packed house.

We had a delicious chocolate and buttercream frosting cake from Arnie's. One of the best cakes I've had!

Cousin Kara got her own special lunch beforehand.

Kara is totally excited for gift time.


Hannah had a great time opening all of her presents. Much more into it than last year.


However, she wasn't so big on the cards. I suppose that's typical for a 2-year old, but we did appreciate the sentiment.


You can tell from the look on Jason's face how thrilled he was that Hannah got dishwasher with what seemed to be 5000 pieces.


A rare family photo before cutting into the cake. Unfortunately, I was too busy presenting her the cake and serving it that I didn't get any pictures of her eating it :-( We actually got her her very own cupcake, as I she has a bad habit of spitting everywhere when she blows on anything. I thought I'd save our guests the germs.


However, Hannah did mooch some of the delicious cake from Grandpa Cramer.


One of the biggest hits of the day were the balloons. They absolutely cracked Hannah up! Kara was thrilled by them as well.

By the end of the party, Hannah was done with having her picture taken. As badly as I wanted a nice one with her Grandma and Grandpa Davis, this was the best we got. Overall, though, we had a fantastic party.
