I’m just getting around to posting about Binh’s birthday party. We had a good time, and the kids really had a blast with their friends. We just had a gathering here at the house, but it was enough for a two year old. Ash’s family was in town for the event so some of them helped with the preparations which made things go a lot more smoothly for me. We had lots of fruits and veggies to eat, and I picked up a party platter of chicken nuggets from Chik-fil-A. Who doesn’t love Chik-fil-A, anyway? So there was plenty to munch on besides cake. Speaking of cake, our neighbors made Binh’s birthday cake. Actually, the husband made the cake. He’s quite the baker, too, because I don’t even like cake and I wanted seconds of this stuff!
Didn’t he do a great job? It looked really cute, but tasted even better. I told him if it didn’t work out for him in his current job, he could always be on “Ace of Cakes”.
Here are a few shots from the day:
Ava is waiting patiently for cake!
Binh has never had anyone sing “Happy Birthday” to him (I don’t think he remembered my rendition from last year), so I think he thought we were all a little nuts.
Get a load of those cute lips blowing out the candle! Is it me, or is that entirely too adorable?
Lastly, I have to post this one because I think it’s funny. Here’s our friend’s daughter carrying around this tiny baby that she was busy taking care of all night. It’s a baby from Ava’s doll house. She was also strolling it and a bunch of doll house furniture in the doll stroller for much of the evening. 🙂
