Happy 2nd Birthday to our Gator Baby!

For Grace Louise's birthday this year, we decided to throw a tailgating themed bash at our new house! Eager to fill our home with the love and laughter of many people who care about our sweet girl, the guest list grew...and boy, was it a party!!! If you are reading this and were part of making this great day happen by helping out or simply joining us to celebrate, THANK YOU!

Plenty of ORANGE and BLUE! Guests came sporting their team colors (mostly orange and blue- with a few party pooper exceptions).
Big thanks to my sweet and very creative friend, Stephanie, for helping me create this AMAZING banner. It was just what I was hoping for!
My little family :-)


Grace Louise and her friends loved trying out her new sandbox! I anticipate lots of creative play time in this!

This year Grace Louise got a normal cupcake like everyone else. Quite a treat! I only gave her a smidgen of icing, but as you can see, she somehow got a bit more! Grrrr... I'm so glad I don't have to defend my parenting choices concerning her diet on a daily basis!

PRESENTS!!!
With no older sibling, Grace Louise is accumulating her own collection of toys, one birthday and Christmas at a time! She was blessed with so many great gifts and art supplies!

Our attempt at getting all of the Gator Cheerleaders together for a picture. Try convincing a bunch of toddlers... we only got three! But there were many and they were oh so cute in their Gator garb!
(Apparently Grace Louise thought this was silly face time!)

Hugs for Addy Fann!!!
Baby Hayden wanted to be in the mix too! The girls were so sweet with her!
Grace Louise has always loved her so much!

The big surprise from Pops and BeBe. Her very own Gator Jeep!

Taking Addy for a ride and having way too much fun chasing BeBe around the yard!

All tuckered out from the BEST party ever!
