Silly Shenanigans

We just got home last night from a too short, fun-filled trip to visit my family in TN and to celebrate the 2nd birthday of my sweet niece, Emma. Isn't she just precious?? I have to admit that it has been SOO hard to pick which pictures to post of our trip, so I'm going to go ahead and link to the entire album - videos and all!

Here is the birthday girl getting a head start on the celebrating...
Dancing on the table!
Isn't that a precious cake her mama made for her?
Look, being a princess is not all that easy. It takes a lot of hard work!

Grammy & her girl
Pizza, cake & apple juice... quite a birthday feast for a little princess!
Nummy!!
Yay, presents! Emma got the most awesome kitchen ever from her mommy & daddy and a pretty adorable apron (from this lovely vendor) from a certain auntie, uncle & baby cousin...
And what did a Baby Kumquat do while her big cousin opened presents? Why, she sat in cousin's chair and had a snack, of course!
And let's not forget this sweet baby sissy...

The fun continued the following day when we went to the greatest park ever. Seriously. It was amazing. It had LOADS of equipment, a splash pad, a lovely layout, and a Starbucks. What more could you possibly want?
An amazingly gorgeous day? Check.
