THE Barnyard Birthday Party

Welcome to the Powell barnyard bash, you cannot see it, but we

are sitting on our hay bay horse

I know you really do not want to hear about the fun new things the twins are eating, or how much they splash in the tub, I imagine you are anxious to see pictures from their first birthday party. Without further hesitation, here are a few highlights...

Here's the barnyard cake from Rhodes Bakery - yummy!!!

Elizabeth eyeing her brothers cupcake, not realizing hers is so close Now she sees the sugary tasty treat ....and it is all over Gosh, this is so much fun

Who needs hands, when the cake can go

straight to my mouth?

Unlike twin sis, Tom did not like getting cupcake on himself.

We all love Ms. Chiquita and Mr. Charles

- they are so much fun!

Grab your cowboy hats and smile, we are going

for a ride on the two headed horse

We love our new chairs from Uncle Robs,

Aunt Lara and soon to be Uncle Kyle

Has anyone seen Broke back Mountain?

Topy is getting Tom all geared up for his first tricycle ride

What is this thing on my head?

I really like my new set of wheels

Tom could not quite figure out what was on top

of his head, but he knew he did not like it

We are going to cruise the neighborhood in style,

thanks to Uncle VJ

Thanks Grandfather Graffeo, we have an awesome new kids table

and cute little school chairs - did I mention that he made this for us?

Crazy Grandmother Graffeo bending down to kiss Elizabeth,

not knowing that I have my camera - what a nut!

What a day, I am sooo tired!!!

Many thanks to those who drove near and far to help make our birthday so special! The kids had a blast and Tom and I really enjoyed ourselves as well!
