Gabby's Birthday Party

So today we spent our day having fun and hanging out with Gabby celebrating her 2nd B'Day.  Everything was great until I got to the bridge on the way home and saw that we had a 90 minute wait.  1 1/2 hours is a lllloooonnnngggg time to wait at the bridge with two kids.  And, usually these posted times are an underestimation.  My rule is to double the time posted and that's how long it will take me to cross.  I didn't want to waste too much time so after making a few phone calls, checking my emails, and playing a few rounds of angry birds, I took out the baby wipes and started to clean the inside of my car.  But, to my surprise, our wait was just under the 1 1/2 hour listed time.  Needless to say I was a happy camper and had a clean inside of my car.  Anyway, here are a few of the pictures from the festivities. I'm sure Nicole will post her AWESOME Mickey cake and cookies.  Here we go.

This first picture is Mohamed just trying to get his picture with the kids before they left for the party..

And we all know of my picture jealousy, so I handed him the camera so I could get a picture with the kids, too.

As soon as we got to Gabby's, she was all kisses!  She loves to give hugs and kisses to everyone, especially to Emmersyn.  It is soooo cute!

Before all of the guests had arrived, Amanda, Cameron, and Nicholas played a little Wii.

How cute are these two sisters?

My best attempt at capturing Grammie with the two little girls...

So, not only does Nicole put on a fabulous party and make awesome treats, but she also hands out free massages to her guests!  Give me a break!  Does this girl ever relax?

I lost count of how many times I had to chase Emmersyn up and down the stairs.  I guess it helped to burn off some of those extra calories from all of the goodies at the party.  And those chocolate marshmallow treats...yum yum!

Here is the birthday girl during her big moment...

And while Gabby was opening presents, this is where I found Emmersyn.  In the toy box throwing all of the toys out of the box.  I think she was trying to avoid being jealous after she saw all of the cute outfits that Gabby received!

I'm  sure Nicole will fill you in on the best present from Aunt Laura and Uncle Brad... The PURSE!

Gabby found her friend after opening all of her presents and joined Emmersyn in the toy box.

How cute is Tyler?  I think Tyler and Emmersyn must both be teething.  (K/Crystal is cute too.  I love her bangs!)

Here mom is spending hours trying to untangle Amanda's necklaces!  Steve gave up probably after an hour, and then mom took over.  She successfully untangled them by the time I got to the border and began my wait!  Great job mom!  Undoing the slinky months ago must have really helped with the necklaces!

Here I was so excited...The border booth was finally in sight.  And, the inside of my car was clean!

When I got home I think I was still on a sugar high from all of the treats.  I emptied the dishwasher, did a load of laundry, took out the garbage, and blogged.  I need to give the kids a bath and get them to bed.  Goodnight!
