Party Time!

As you may have often noticed, I tend to refer to Kate and Olivia as my two monkeys. Just hang around them for a day and you'll figure out why: they climb, they play and they get into things. : ) I was super surprised but quite please when I took them into pick out their own cake and they wanted a monkey cake. To be more specific, Kate wanted a blue monkey and Olivia a green. And that is what they got.

My two happy girls.

The "kids" table

Then we of course had to have a good game of "pin the tail on the donkey"

Then it was time for presents. When I uploaded pictures, I just had to laugh at this one. It sums up Ava a bit as well . .. most days I am convinced she thinks she is as much a mother to Kate and Olivia as I am. : )

Time for cake - singing "happy birthday!"

Then what's any good party without lots of goofing around. : )
