On Saturday, October 12th, we celebrated Audrey's 2nd birthday with a wonderful party.
We chose a One Fish Two Fish Red Fish Blue Fish party theme because Audrey loves Dr. Seuss books and loves this one in particular.
Grammy Patton really put a lot of her touches (and time, resources, money, and effort!) into this party. We keep telling her she needs to be a party planner! We really appreciate everything she did to make this such a special day for Audrey.

Beautiful food display. Decorations (including handmade wreath and banner)

On the left side of this picture is a Gack where the kids could play "Ring the Gack."
That's right, we have the only Gack in town. Grammy Patton made that Gack
with her new saw and then hand painted all the details with a little help from
her brother, my Uncle Scott, who was visiting from TN. |

Guests could sign the book and leave their wishes for the birthday girl. Sign reads,
"Stop here you see, and write a very special message to Me! A Birthday Wish
or just sign your name, So I will never forget you came. On the front, on the back,
or any of the pages. It is something I will treasure for all my ages! Love, Audrey 10-12-2013" |

Here is the beautiful dessert table. Auntie Ashley made the "2" sprinkle cake and all
the delicious cupcakes. The cake was funfetti and the cupcakes were a mixture
of funfetti with funfetti frosting (minus the sprinkles) and carrot cake with cream
cheese frosting. So beautiful and, most importantly, so delicious! The carrot cake
cupcakes were my (and a lot of guests') favorites! |
 |
The dessert table also had fish cookies from Mariano's and
fish bowls of swedish fish, colored goldfish, fish sweet tarts. |
Audrey certainly had a lot of fun celebrating with all her friends and family. What a great day it was! Thank you to everyone who came! (Unfortunately, I didn't get a picture of everyone who came.)
And a special thank you to Grammy Patton and Auntie Ashley Patton for everything they did for the party!! What a special party for a special girl.
