Turning Two in Texas

Kate turned two on August 6th! We were lucky enough to be able to spend her birthday with family again this year! My older brother and his family just moved to Texas, about 6 hours away from us, and my parents were there helping them move in, so we got to see all of them! (We actually celebrated Kate's birthday two days in a row, but for the sake of the blog, we'll squish it all into one day).

Kate's day started out with a "Nannerpus" breakfast. She has loved that video on youtube ever since she saw it on Aunt Becca's blog! She was so excited when we brought it out to her, her jaw literally dropped!



Her day continued with some fun in the backyard with cousins playing in the mud. Once I realized what was happening, I figured she was already a mess, no use in stopping her while she was having so much fun!

Our little ragamuffins Kate and Nicole:





After a good scrub down and an afternoon nap the festivities continued. Kate loves Dumbo "DEBO!" So I made her a Dumbo cake:

We opened up her presents:





She has not stopped playing with the tea set and play food set from Grandma and Grandpa Brown since we got home!

The cake was devoured:





The girls got their grove on with Strawberry Shortcake's "Strawberry Shake" (I don't know how we ended up with no pictures of that) while Blake hung out with Grandma:

We finished off the day with a trip to a water park. Kate loves swimming so it was a perfect ending to a perfect day!
