Livermore Park~Folsom~California
Hannah had her birthday this year at a park that had water features. Here's a picture of the waterfall and stream that runs down the hill.
Hannah about to run under the waterfall. It was 105 degrees outside, so it was a nice way to cool off.
All of Hannah's friends, including her good friend Macy shared in the fun that day.
Hannah sharing a laugh with Carly, Cameron and Macy.
Several people brought side dishes, so it was nice not having to prepare all the food this year. The main dish was chicken and hot dogs, and people brought salads, muffins, chips and yummy fruit. Hannah eating her food with Kevin, Kaci, Zachary, Aaron, Wendi and Bethany.
Andrew staying cool with his sunhat on. He loved playing in the water, but most of the time he just hung out in the shade.
Everybody sang "Happy Birthday" to Hannah before she blew out her candles. She giggled the whole time. I think it was a nervous/excited giggle. :) We had been practicing blowing out a candle all week, so she would be an expert candle extinguisher on her birthday. She blew them all out on the first try!
We snapped a picture of the cake just in time (with a piece already missing). The blueberry flowers (the almonds were the petals) formed a 3 in case you can't tell. :)
Hannah eating her cupcake. She requested/picked out the type of cake she wanted this year. She chose chocolate cake with strawberry frosting. I would have never picked that out or thought of that myself, but it was super delisch!
Andrew needed some comforting so I picked him up, and the first thing he did was pull on Hannah's party hat. What a boy!
Hannah loved opening all her gifts. We waited till the end to give her the "big" gift. She got a new bicycle! Notice that it is gender neutral so Andrew will be able to use it when Hannah grows out of it. :)
Wendi, Dawn and Stephanie chatting it up in the shade.
Daddy and Andrew having a good laugh...actually I think daddy is tickling him which is making Andrew laugh. The last two birthdays Hannah has had, we never got a picture of Travis since he was always the photographer. So, this year I made sure to get several pictures of him, to prove that YES he was at the party. :) Happy birthday Hannah!
