Birthday Extravaganza

"The Birthday Girls"


Being only 4 days apart we thought it was only natural to have a combined birthday party with Addysen. (Have I mentioned before that Addysen is her BFF?) With matching dresses and bows the girls were ready for their friends to arrive.


(when they aren't looking at the camera I think they look alike)



Water Balloons!


Asher LOVED the balloons. He would take one at a time and drop them on the ground. It was so funny.

Water + dirt + grass = messy girl.


Food!



Friends!






Cake!


Addysen liked to look at her cake but not touch it.
Abigail too, until I helped her a little.
They are the cleanest cake eaters I know.


Today we celebrated the sweet lives our of daughters. Miracles. A breath of fresh air. God's children. Joys to our lives.

Thank you friends for coming to our party. It was really a great time.

And I feel so blessed.
