The BIRTH-Day part II. The Party.

The big party day. 300+ pictures of it. A beautiful day spent with the people that we truly love most. I could sit here and elaborate on every detail, however I believe the pictures can do most of the talking for me.

This year we had decided on a very intimate setting. We wanted it to be just close family and we wanted Elliana to truly get how special she is and how special her birthday truly is. I believe we accomplished just that.

Not to mention that the weather was more than cooperating. It was almost 70 degrees out, sunny, and absolutely beautiful. It made this mama extra happy. And one grilling husband extra happy as well.

The theme? Our shining star. I went a little crazy, yet again {pictures only show a glimpse} with the decorations. Stars hanging from the ceiling everywhere. A large 6 foot banner with our daughter's beautiful face on it saying "Happy 2nd birthday", over 100 balloons blown up, streamers all over, and little touches here and there. And yes, we did the photo shoot set up again this year... and unfortunately didn't use it as much as I had envisioned. Overall? I loved how it all turned out.

Our shining star really signifies what a beautiful impact our growing baby girl has had on our lives. She brightens each and every day and we are so so blessed to be her parents, call her ours, and watch as she molds into something really really special.












***Again, I try to keep pictures of just Andrew, our daughter, and myself on here to protect the privacy of my family members***
