Hope and Grace's 2nd Birthday!

This year I had a little extra help in making their cake...

and how could I resist that smile,

when she asked to dig into the icing... ;)

Our finish product...
bitter-sweet
(it's a butterfly)

And as tradition has it,

Mimi brings a dozen balloons for us all to release to heaven.

And one

by one

we ALL release a balloon

In hopes that inside these balloons
are giant hugs

flying to heaven to be received by our baby girls

Until next year little darlings...
Have the best 2nd year in Heaven.

I LOVE YOU
I bet in true twin fashion they fought over each balloon bc one or the other wanted all the hugs from their family. xoxo
ReplyDeleteSo sweet. I was out of town on their birthday and got behind on reading blogs when you posted about it. So happy belated birthday to them. I'm sure they are smiling in Heaven.
