Because Mom didn't plan ahead very far like last year, we had Skylar and Elaina's birthday party a week after their actual birthday. It worked out well though because on their real birthday we celebrated just as a family and then got to celebrate with friends again. Elaina loved having everyone over. She twirled her dress and loved eating her cake (what a surprise). Skylar seemed a bit overwhelmed by all the people. He clung to his MoMo and was pretty fussy. He did enjoy the blowing out of the candles and finally got the hang of eating cake (he is NOT like his sister who LOVES sweets!!)
The spread (we had so much leftover...it is hard to remember that when you have 25 people and half are kids, they don't eat as much!!)

Sesame Street theme with an Elmo cake, of course!

Happy birthday girl!

She seemed a little unsure of what to do and climbing into my lap soon after this was taken.

Skylar with Grandma

She loved eating her cake but especially the ice cream. After she finished hers, we caught her moving to the next chair and finishing her friend Alex's ice cream.

Mmmm, icing:)
