This past weekend we had Ashley's party for her 2nd birthday. Attendees were: my Mom & Dad, one of my sisters, her 2 children (ages 8 & 1 1/2), Joey's Mom & "friend", Joey's older brother and his girlfriend as well as one of my friends from work. We had a marvelous time... or at least I think we did. There were no games and chaos, just family fun and socialization. Ashley really enjoyed having the attention, her finger nails being painted, the money put in her pockets (literally), the gifts as she careful removed pieces of wrapping paper placing them directly in the trash bag provided and making sure that every scrap of paper was removing from the box before attempting to discover the gift she had been given, among other things. My house is empty (but tore up) now, as everyone had to go home yesterday (sadly enough as I don't think I nor Ashley can ever get enough of my parents, Nana & Poppie to Ashley).
One thing that surprised me was a gift that Ashley received, love and paid attention to. It was a gift from her Uncle Jimmy & Aunt Sharon (Joey's older brother & girlfriend). I had no idea that she would put this on and wear it. I wish I had a camera on hand to capture this little girl's face as I took her back to the bedroom to see herself in her crown and earrings once she had them on. However, although I do not have a picture of her expression it will be forever in my heart...
