Rachel's 2nd Birthday!

Rachel's 2nd birthday party was a Dora themed fiesta. We tried to keep it as small as possible and only invited immediate family as well as 3 of her other good friends. Here's a pic of the food spread... The kids made Dora themed tamborines out of paper plates and jelly beans and decorated them with stickers, etc.

She really enjoyed the cupcake! A special thanks is in order to Ms. Alison for decorating all the cupcakes!

Rachel on the morning of her actual birthday. We made cinnamon rolls especially for her since they're her favorite. She ate two!



Then we went to Monkey Joes and her friend Josiah joined us too! They had so much fun!



Picking the perfect book and "Pinky" the cat as gifts for her birthday. The book was from Ms. Alison since she gave her some money for it...and she picked out "Pinky" as a gift from me and Adam in addition to her new swingset. We ate at Red Robin with Papa, Mimi, Uncle Nate, Aunt Lalo, and Kate before going to Books A Million to pick out her gifts.
