Happy Birthday Karisse!!

Yesterday our baby girl turned 2. I can hardly believe it has been 2 years already. She was soooo funny yesterday. She walked around all day singing "happy birthday to you". She is a mess.

Karisse sing Happy Birthday!

Today was her birthday party. We had 23 people here for the party. It was a beautiful day so we spent most of the time in the back yard. Last night I blew-up and filled Karisse's swimming pool because it was supposed to be really warm today. The three little kids had a ball in the pool even though the water was pretty cold. We moved Karisse's slide so the end of it was in the pool and Thomas and Karisse LOVED sliding into the water. Finley was not too sure about the sliding. Shortly after they got out of the pool it started to rain so we decided it was time to go inside for birthday cake and presents.

Fun in the pool!

She had an Elmo birthday, so I made her an Elmo birthday cake. It was a bit stressful getting it decorated this morning. I am pretty proud of the way it turned out though. A BIG THANK YOU to our friend Beth for sharing her fabulous icing recipe and her decorating tips and to our friend Ronda for the use of the Elmo cake pan.

The ELMO cake!

Blowing out the candles! Karisse had a GREAT BIRTHDAY, but she was one pooped kiddo be the time everyone left.
