Watching the weather forecast for the week of her party, every day before, and every day after were a perfect 75* and sunny.... except Saturday. Not only was it predicted to rain, it was a severe thunderstorm warning with high winds and hail. YIKES! 30 people (1/2 of them kids) in my house at the same time while it pours.... oh no! The party gods were on our side, because although it looked threatening for some parts of the day, it didn't actually rain until about 15 minutes after the guests had left. The party was a huge success! Melody had so much fun running around outside playing with her cousins and friends. The balloons on the sticks in the yard were a big hit along with Melody's new swing set compliments of Mema & Papa! The food came out wonderful and I had very few leftovers and a lot of full bellies. I couldn't have asked for a more perfect day for my little girl's 2nd birthday. Well, maybe if she had wanted a cute pretty princess party instead of a Thomas one, but my little tomboy will one day want to be girlie!
Unfortunately we took mostly video, and not many pictures so this is all I have for now. Once I get sent some more pictures I'll add them.
Here's Melly after she first woke up from her nap, all sweaty and excited that her friends were coming. Nice hair!
My side of the family singing Happy Birthday!
