When I asked Nora what she wanted for her birthday, she always said, "a bug vacuum" and "rollerskates." She got the first of her wishes here, a bug vacuum with a little chamber that the bug goes into, which matches the bug dome that she also received. On the first day, Ted helped her collect about 10 different kinds of bugs.
Nora is skeptical of these Star Wars underwear...must be for Anders 🙂
Every girl needs a boa, and this one might not shed as much as a feather boa.
Building the Lego mini-figure set from Anders!
And for her second birthday request: rollerblades! Thanks Jen, Jerm, Casie and Nate. They will take some practice and growing!
Birthday party antics: Tree climbing with Mackenzie's sparkly belt. That's our girl. She has good tough girl role models.
The dads whipped up a rousing game of "monster," chasing the kids around the playground. Ian and Anders are looking dapper!
Nora and Fiona watch the monster chase.
The fancy tea party table! Lacy table cloth, real tea cups, and fancy party goers!
Cupcake time!
Ted pours the tea.
It's great to see all of these kids playing in their fancy clothes. The best of all worlds--we can be whatever we want to be!
GREAT photos! Looks like it was a fabulous day in every way!!!
