Aliya Had A Birthday!

Our little girl is two! We are stunned that it has already been two years with our little Liya. We love her so much and thank Heavenly Father for blessing us with such a precious daughter. She is an energetic and smart little girl, that can be fiesty but is generally sweet :)  

Here are some fun pictures of Aliya's "burtday" 

(she had lots of fun telling people "it's my burtday!")     

First, we made birthday invitations.  

She painted water colors for the inside and then we made crepe paper flowers on the outside.

She had lots of fun dropping off the invitations too.

Then, we made a pinata.

And finally it was her birthday!

She wasn't very awake, but still happy she got a bike.

We went to the park that day to try out her new bike, 

but all she wanted to do was play in the dirt. Teach us for spending money on a present.

We played some soccer.

She even got past Daddy!

Played troll under the bridge :)

We had pizza for lunch. Lucky Abram!

Made a train cake while she had her nap.

 
She loved the cake. She really wanted to eat it especially the ring pop.

Waiting for the party to start. Little monkey!

 Opening presents.

 Bubbles!

 She did not quite understand what we were telling her to do to the pinata.

 But then Gwenevere showed her how it's done!

 Now, she is using some umph! And check out that tutu!
She put it on and said "I'm a princess". She loves it, thanks Elizabeth :)

 I'm glad she had fun with the pinata.

 We couldn't break it.

All she had to say was "uh-oh".

Saw Daddy taste the letters first. She loves O's!

 They were one of the first things she pointed out when she saw the cake

Happy Birthday song

 I don't think she knew how she should eat it.

 Yum!

Overall, I think she had a great birthday!

Thank you to all of those who came to celebrate with us
and thank you to all of you who gave birthday wishes from afar!
We are so glad you are all a part of Aliya's life.

Love,
Tanya, Kevin, Aliya, and Abram
