E-I-E-I-O.....Farm 2nd Birthday Party!!!

What a fun time we all had at Reese's farmed themed birthday party!!!! I hope you enjoy a peak into her party!

Cake Table: I used one of Reese's Little People farms for the decorationalong with some of the animals on the cake. And look at all of those adorable hats...thanks to Jessica...and they were a BIG hit!!!! Reese loved her hat and it looked so cute on her!

I thought I needed to be super mom and make Reese's cake. After two attempts resulting in crumbling cake....I threw in the towel and scrambled to find someone to make her cake instead. Luckily the last person I called was able to make it....did I mention I was trying to find someone the day before the party. I think it turned out adorable and was sooo yummy!

HoHo cake I made.....one of my favorite cakes ever!!! This cake was the most popular. Guess I should have just made this one and avoided the birthday cake fiasco :)

What is a farm party with out animals!!!! Papaw came through in a big way and had so many fun animals for everyone to play with. There were goats, bunnies(thanks to Aunt Melissa), kittens, chicks, adorable puppies, turtles and of course...Lucy (Papaw's Pony)!!!!

We had a surprise visitor thanks to Papaw!!! Dora came to visit and pass out toys to all the little ones. Reese wasn't quite sure what to think :) But she did enjoy having Dora there.

If you look at the bottom 2 right pictures...you will notice my nephew Ethan (the boy in the blue shirt). Ethan is very special to our family. He was diagnosed with Autism when he was around 2. It took him awhile to start talking and having conversations with all of us. Lately, his speech has been excellent. We love to hear all he has to say....and most of it is full of humor. Ethan kept stealing Dora's backpack, map and Boots...so we started calling him Swiper. Of course we all chimed in and said, "Swiper no swiping!" to which Ethan replied...."You're toooo late!!!" We thank God that we have the opportunity to share in these great conversations!


Cake Time: Reese was in awe of everyone singing "Happy Birthday" to her!

She did an excellent job at blowing out her candles....mommy and daddy only had to help a little bit :)

Sweet Pictures of the Birthday Girl:

Love how her Birthday outfit turned out!!! And the boots were the perfect finishing touch!!!

We had a Yee-Haw good time!!!!! But this is how we all felt on the trip back home!!!

Thank you Mamaw & Papaw for letting us have the party at your house and for making sure it was just like a farm!!!! You two are the best!!!!
