Yesterday I told you we had a party for Alaina and Ruby. Alaina turned 8 on the 24th, and Ruby turns 5 on November 5. I can't believe how quickly they are growing up.
Laura and both girls had been sick, and although they were feeling better, we decided it would be easier for them to just have it here.
We started with pizza.
Alaina was happy to get this rainbow loom. It's something she's used at school to make bracelets.
Here's Ruby and Laura reading a card.
Ruby loves bunnies and was happy with this little stuffed bunny she got.
Ruby also got this hopping bunny game and they all had fun playing it.
Alaina did a test of her loom and made this.
We had some donuts that are famous around here in the Fall instead of cake. And we all had to wear party hats while eating them!
Some of the crazy partiers! Andrew and Heather.
The birthday girls!
Silly Grandpa!
Laura, Ruby, Alaina, Aaron.
Happy Birthday girls! We love you lots!
We celebrated one of our grandson's birthdays tonight. I love sharing those special days with them.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like the perfect kind of birthday party! Presents, good food, smiling faces, and those hats!! I really love watching Alaina and Ruby growing up. They are such sweet girls!

ReplyDeleteAwwwww, sweet. Laura is very pretty. And yes...silly grandpa. But Mari...you should get the photo of the two birthday girls where they are together in the one pic & get that enlarged and framed!!
ReplyDeleteThey grow up right before our eyes and we dont realize it until a birthday or something to remind us. So glad they had a good party and I enjoy seeing all the gifts, etc. Have a good Tuesday.
ReplyDeleteThese girlies are getting so big. What a fun memory they will have of birthday parties with the family.
ReplyDeleteSweet celebration....
ReplyDeleteI love that everyone wore hats!! How cute! Happy birthday to both of your beautiful granddaughters!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun party filled with family and lucky you all are to be so close. Wonderful...
ReplyDeleteWe know from our children, how very fast they grow up . . . being around children and seeing life through their eyes is a blessing. That photo of the girls together is adorable, they look so sweet.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Alaina and Ruby!
They seem like such sweet girls. Looks like they had a great birthday!
ReplyDeleteI love celebrating my kids and grands birthdays. I loved your pictures too. Family is just so important and someday there will be so many wonderful memories. I loved joining in by reading your blog and hope the girls had wonderful birthdays.

ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to them both! Time flies. Love the hats, and "Silly Grandpa" made me laugh. :D
ReplyDeleteAwww! A belated Happy Birthday to them both! Ruby has had her golden birthday! Five on the fifth. That's a special one. And Alaina, eight years old! Our little Andrew will turn eight in February. Such a wonderful age. I'm sorry they'd been sick but it looks like they enjoyed the festivities anyway. xoxo
