Lydia is officially 2 years old!
She had a birthday party on Saturday, and it was fun! Actually, it was fun...and really WINDY!!!!!!!!!!


So windy!!

Lydia's party was held at Frisco Commons Park. It was a beautiful day. Perfect really, just super windy. We reserved a pavillion there, and had snacks, birthday cake, and Opa cooked hot dogs on the grill. (the hot dogs were a big hit!) Omi made Lydia's special birthday cake for her, and Grammy bought her this precious princess party dress to wear! Many of Lydia's friends came (and brought along their parents) and Lydia's whole family came!! Grammy, Poppy, Omi, Opa, Kelly, Joshua, Liam, Katie, and Warner! (Uncle Mike is away for something really important, but was with us in spirit!) Although me - the Mommy with the BIG vision for the perfect birthday party - was disappointed that the decorations, balloons, colorful tablecloths, streamers, party favors, snacks and drinks, etc were FLYING EVERYWHERE and the scene was just NOT what I had envisioned... I eventually let it go and we had a wonderful time. We felt really loved that our family and so many of Lydia's little friends had made a point to come to the party. We feel blessed when our child is blessed! And I couldn't have pulled this off without the support and help of my awesome family. Lydia enjoyed being outside for 2 1/2 hours and had fun dancing and playing the entire time! She was singing and happy and totally secure! Her Daddy says she is so full of the Spirit!! I love that. She truly is so happy and full of love. And now she's 2! Wow. Although I'd love for her to stay just like this forever, I'm actually really happy for her that she gets to be 2 now. I loved the age of 1 for Lydia - it was a great age, sweet and fun. But now she gets to have fun being 2 and I'm really happy for her. There's so much in store for her this year!
