Alianna turns two!




Yesterday we had Alianna's birthday party. It was a lot of fun despite some obstacles we faced that we worying me a little including: not very successful dive into potty training that week, Alianna was sick, and of course we showed up at the park(which you can't reserve) to find a lady sitting at our pavilion were we already had stuff up and the grass soaking wet because they are re-seeding. Luckily it all worked out. She went potty before we left( although it was in her pants, at least it wasn't at the park!), she only had a man voice from losing her voice and was not sick, the lady said she was just waiting for her tent and her party wasn't until later, and we just didn't do the field games and played on the playground again.We had all her favorite people there minus a few sickies, even grandma and popa weir and uncle Mitch were able to drive over to join us.

We had yummy lots of yummy food. I went a little crazy with the cute minnie red polka dots and even cut sandwiches into mickey heads.

This is my first attempt at Marshmallow Fondant. Please do not laugh. I saw this a while back on So you think you're crafty and got ambitious thinking I could re-create it. The head is a half of the soccer bowl Wilton cake pan and the ears are sugar cookies in case any of you were scratching your heads.
She is one spoiled/lucky little girl with all the amazing presents she got. Apparently everyone has her pegged because everything was princesses, Minnie, or coloring and she couldn't be more thrilled! We got Alianna a trike with the handle in back so when she gets bored pedaling, or doesn't even start, we can still go for a "bike ride"/walk.She was pretty excited about it because everytime we go to the store she spots the bikes across the store and tries to take them home. The bottom is a shot of most of the kids chowing down, Thanks for coming guys we had a blast! Or and thanks a lot for the belly shot of the two preggo girls Dad, it's really flattering. ( FOr those of you wanting to laugh at me, I'm the belly in red.)

  1. Oh man!!! Everything looks soo cute! We were so sad to not make it. All three girls were sick. Adelaide thinks Alianna belongs to her. Every time I drop Hallie off at preschool Adelaide goes, " me to Alianna's!!" Like it's a given that next we go to your house. Oh and her cake is ADORABLE! good job.
