Zoe had such a wonderful second birthday party! I was a bit nervous knowing that we were expecting about 60 people. We realize our backyard is great for entertaining. We just laid sod about 3 weeks ago and it was perfect for the party. It makes our backyard look really big and now Zoe can run around and play on it, plus we have the dirt spot where the jumper was to turn that in to Zoe's little park, including a swingset. And of course the big covered patio...
The whole party was centered around ladybugs...I made the banner, Kim and I made the ladybug cake (that turned out soooo CUTE!), there were ladybugs everywhere, including the goodie bags, Auntie Heather let us borrow tables and chairs with black linens, and some of the food even coordinated! Zoe was thrilled to have a jumper and now she tells us that her jumper went bye-bye. I guess that will have to be an assumption for every party to come :) Zoe blew out her candles all by herself this year and really enjoyed cake time, unlike last year. We had 15 kiddos at the party and they were all 5 and younger. They all had a good time and we had very little tears! What a success!
The whole weekend was so exhausting, but well worth it! One of the best parts is being able to visit with our friends from Blythe. We were able to take the kids to the park, ladies got their pedis, men golfed, we hung out a bit and we loved having their help too! Despite lil' Addie's split open chin (she was such a brave little girl and had it glued and taped by the doctor at the pediatric urgent care)...we had a great time! We also enjoyed a relaxing Easter morning together before the Bayles' headed for home.
Thanks for having us at Zoe's party - we had a great time and Jakey loved playing with Zoe's toys (especially the play house!) You did an amazing job with the party and I loved all of the ladybug themed details! Hope to see you guys again soon.
