We had a double birthday party for Aliza and Josiah this weekend. I started to write a double birthday blog and I couldn't do it. There was too much I wanted to say and and too many pictures to choose from!
Aunt Brandi french braided Aliza's hair for the party. Despite her fine hair, that braid stayed in all day.
This is Aliza's side of the dining room. All pink and Lalaloopsy themed. She carefully chose which Lalaloopsy cupcake pick should be on each cupcake. I put micro lalaloopsy figurines on her cake. I think she was pleased.
Aliza greeted Lydia right away. Aliza can always make Lydia laugh.
A Lalaloopsy carrying case from Grandma and Grandpa...
And a Lalaloopsy treehouse (that Aliza has been wanting for "years") from Grandma and Grandad...
Uncle Jeff patiently assembled the treehouse with Aliza.
Then Aliza took her treehouse upstairs to play. There are a lot of small pieces so it was best not to have it on the floor. Aliza spent the rest of her party taking whoever would go with her up to see her treehouse. She played and played and later she and Josiah spent a lot of time playing with it together.
Aliza wanted me to sit with her while she ate her pizza.
Every evening last week Aliza and Josiah each worked with Daddy to make a pinata for their birthday party. This is Aliza's pinata. Those pinatas were tough! Aliza eventually laid it on the floor and beat it until it broke open!
And, of course, we had cake!
Aliza woke up at 6am the day of the party ready for the day to start. This was after she went to bed after 11pm because she stayed up to see Grandma and Grandpa and Joel and Brandi. I enjoyed seeing her so excited. She was eager to help set up and decorate and greet her guests. And opening Lalaloopsy gift after Lalaloopsy gift-- that was the icing on the cake for her!
