Happy Birthday Adalyn!

Adalyn turned 2! We can't believe it, but it's true! Like our other holidays this birthday was a multiple event occasion. These events are as follows...

April 16, 2010: Wayment Grandparent's celebration





























April 22, 2010: Adalyn's Birthday
She woke up to this:

(Notes to self: Never wake up your 2 year old, even on her birthday. Never put two doughnuts on the plate if she only gets one! Sharing doughnuts isn't easy!)

During the day we met Devin for a birthday lunch and 2 rides on the carousel.











































That night we had the Payne/Lingwall celebration.
















































April 24, 2010: Dora Party
We decided to do a separate party for Adalyn and a few of her friends. Since Adalyn's favorite show lately is Dora we decided to have her as the theme of the party.

Unfortunately, Swiper swiped the kids treats. Luckily, we had a map to find them!


































Say it with me...
Slide,














Stairs,














Tent!















We also had lunch complete with Dora cupcakes!




























Celebrating Adalyn's birthday was so much fun and we were so glad that she had a few special days that were all about her. Thanks so much to our family and friends who helped us celebrate!

Blessed

Yesterday, Quincy Lynn Payne was blessed. Devin gave her a beautiful blessing, and she was an angel the entire time. She looked so beautiful all in white. We had so many family and friends there to support us and we are so grateful for them all. Here are some pictures from the day.

Although Quincy was the one who was blessed, it is Devin and I who have been truly blessed. We are so fortunate to have our two beautiful girls as well as each other. We are blessed to have the kind of family and friends that we do. We are blessed, and duly grateful.
