Rylee's 2nd Birthday Celebrations

For Rylee’s birthday, we had a family celebration at a new favorite place – Little Monkey Buziness!

For the girl that never ever stops moving, it was PERFECT!

 

So many places to explore,

Run and jump and crawl,

And really, ACT LIKE A MONKEY!

And because it’s IMPOSSIBLE to take pics of her when she’s moving, I started taking lots of videos instead :) 

They even had bounce house/slide combo for the kids

  

Interactive games – we played a round of “soccer” then “lit” off some firecrackers!

Good ole parachute never loses its charm!

Good times on the slide! 

(Which is how she has a whole in those leggings, in case you were wondering :)

 

Something is wrong with me cause these STILL make me laugh so hard!  She didn’t really get hurt, she was up laughing a second later, but still, so FUNNY! 

Wipeout!

Wipeout #2

 

 

The kids had a BLAST – and it was hard to tell who enjoyed it the most.  We may have to make this a monthly Friday night tradition :)

When we came home, we celebrated with Smallcakes and each tasted a bite of the various flavors!  But not without SINGING to the birthday girl!!!

Then she proceeded to tell me how much she loved me!!  Can’t get enough of this girl and her wild crazy energy. 

Then we did the obligatory job of loading her up with lots of sugar!

On Sunday, we celebrated some more by having our extended family join us! 

 

A real birthday cake, candles, and everyone joining in for some might fine singing!

The cake turned out super yummy! A layer of strawberry and a chocoloate – with cool whip frosting.  Not too sweet, cool and refreshing.  I think Rylee agreed!

 

Then it was time to open presents!  And then I stopped taking pics.  Not sure why?!?

 

This girl loves sensory overloads – so she got a princess playdough castle and finger paints.  Which she’ll enjoy and we will loathe :)

Happy Birthday Rylee!!!
