The Big TWO Birhday

Yes, it's happened, Alyssa just turned 2 on Friday August 20th. Our first little girl of flowers, glitter, smiles and endless hugs, and eskamo kisses, is already two whole years old. Our bundle of help and energetic fun. Now that I have been a mother for 16 years, I'm realizing how quickly time slips away. With all my might I'm trying to put the breaks on, but haven't figured out the secret remedy yet, except, of course, I have found a solution instead. That is; to just enjoy life as it goes on and not get too caught up on the unimportant details. So! Here is what we captured in the moments of enjoying this milestone of Alyssa's life, or, the BIG TWO BIRTHDAY:

Food and Fun at Papa's Pizza!


Cake and Presents at home (Lighting the cake)


Alyssa wasn't sure what we wanted her to do with the candles after we sang. The boys had to help her blow them out!





Lots of help opening presents from her brothers ;-)

Recieving lots of "girly" dolls and furniture for her doll house!
(Justin and Michael helped her set it up and played with her for hours. She was in Heaven!)
The Grandma and Grandpa Alger Phone call

What a wonderful celebration. We love you Alyssa Ann!
