Mama loves to PAAAAARTY!

Lia helped me put ladybugs on our front door for Sophie's party. She was very proud of herself and I thought it was very sweet.

I had ladybug citronella candles on stakes and that is what I tied the balloons to. (the propane tank was on its way to be refilled sorry its in the picture)

I highly recommend a candy bar, the kids made their own goody bags... actually alot of adults did too.

Here's the birthday girl! Man she's cute!!!
We could not have done it with out help! Matt and Melissa came early and helped with the waterslide and putting kabobs together. My mom made her amazing rice a roni salad, Erin brought cakes, my cousins made pasta salad and my 2nd moms, Pati, Kathy and Sherry, cleaned up my kitchen for me. Its a lot of work to feed almost 60 people. I made potato salad, cupcakes, baked beans, watermelon and we had little bags of chips to go along with steak and chicken kabobs and hot dogs. Everything tasted so good! It was such a fun afternoon!

Here is the really fun part!

This is the true definition of a classic picture!



Notice the legs at the bottom of this picture... I promise noone fell off!


Riley, I want to eat him up!





It was also my Grandma (GG's) Birthday so we got her a Martha's cake, YUM!



She makes me look short! Ha ha!!!





Lia did this. She emptied out all of her drawers.
Jen may be pregnant but I look like I'm carrying it for her, I shouldn't stand at this angle. I really do have amazing friends!
Sophie is very blessed.
