Madison's 2nd Birthday Party!

I can hardly believe that our little girl is two years old! I guess the saying "time flies when you are having fun" is true. We celebrated Madison's 2nd birthday this Saturday with family and friends. I would like to take the time to thank each and every one of you that came to celebrate. Everyone that was here is very dear to our hearts and this party wouldn't have been possible without each and every one of you! The only people that were missing this year were Grammy and Gramps! They were not able to make it this year due to Grammy's surgery, and they were missed terribly! Our theme this year was "Candy Land". Let me start off by saying there was candy all over the house! We even had a great big Plex pinata from Grammy and Gramps! (and yes mom and dad, we filled the dang thing!) We also had home made chocolate from aunt Rachel, dum dum tree sucker trees, huge pixie sticks, a jelly belly bar, candy lipsticks, cookies, rainbow jello from Aunt Amanda, and big lollipops for everyone. We also had a pasta bar with two types of noodles and sauces, sausage, meatballs, and a whole bunch of appetizers that everyone made. All of the food was wonderful and all of the decorations came out great! Madison had a blast this year. She really got into it and was even saying "Happy Birthday, Madie". It was really cute. She loved when everyone sang to her and even blew out her own candles this year. She got a lot of wonderful stuff, including an awesome table and chairs from Aunt Rachel and Uncle Ryan, a wonderful cozy coupe from Aunt Dawn and Uncle Paul, and awesome MP3 player from Aunt Amanda, adorable outfits from Uncle Timmy, Lynn and Amie, a drum set from Memaw and PaPa, a purse, Elmo doll, and a healthy donation to her investment from Grammy and Gramps, books, precious moments, and other donations for her bank account. We are incredibly blessed with wonderful family and amazing friends. Warning: a ton of pictures to follow!!
