Where does the time go??????????? We have had so much happen over the past two years yet it seems like just yesterday we were welcoming our little girl to the world :)
For Rylan's 2nd birthday we would be off to Cleveland. We started the day at home with presents from us. Rylan had helped me pick out her wrapping paper and been telling me "mine, mine" all week. So when she came downstairs and saw her presents wrapped she was super happy and let out a very loud "MINE" :) She was very pleased with her gifts - clothes, jewelry, headbands, and a Zooble (sp?).

We also had our neighbors stop over to give Rylan a gift - they are so thoughtful! Annie decided that Rylan should have some dress up clothes of her own. Needless to say, Rylan was THRILLED with her gift and insisted on bringing it to Cleveland and sported it for the evening:
So after presents, cake baking (to take to Cleveland), packing, and a visit from the neighbors, it was off to Cleveland. When we arrived I tried to take the cakes out of their pans so I could make the frosting and frost them and I ran into some trouble......only PART of the cakes were willing to come out, meaning I would need to throw them away and start all over. Fun times for sure. So a couple hours after our arrival here is what I had:
I think I was most impressed that I remembered the recipe, which requires that you add the ingredients in a specific order. It not only looked good, but it was quite tasty as well and still warm when we got to dig in.
Meredith, Todd, Dylan, and Gavin also came over to help celebrate the Little Ladies Birthday. We had a wonderful dinner, lots of play and catching up, and of course CAKE!
