Vanessa's 2 year old birthday party!

I just can't believe that my little baby is 2!!!!! Time goes by way too fast! For Vanessa's second birthday I decided to have a mother-daughter tea! It was a blast having my girl friends and their daughters over for a fun morning of tea and making handbags!

Vanessa just could not wait for her friends to show up, we caught her snitching in the food!


My mom made adorable tea cookies...


Vanessa has two princess tea sets that we used for the tea...


My original plan was to have the tea outside, but the morning of the 28th was just a bit overcast, so we decided to have it indoors...


Enjoying our daughters...





Ben's sister Sarah and her daughters Maddie and Abbey...


Then we decorated handbags with stickers and glitter glue...


Little girls using their God-given artistic skills is a joy to behold!




Vanessa and I decorating her bag...


Maddie's finished product...I must say that her's was one of the best looking ones!


Vanessa opening her presents, the umbrella was such a hit that she wouldn't open any other gifts! Finally I had to take it from her and hide it!


She got some very fun princess shoes and jewelery from Maddie and Abbey...


Blowing out her candles...


The whole gang (minus Ava who slept during the whole party!), as you can see Vanessa is no longer having a good time! Bummer!

what a fun idea! Love your photo journal of the event. We won't have crafts at Chloe's BBQ pool party, but you've inspired me for future birthdays. See you Saturday!
Love, Sarah
