Two moms who have been friends since they were tiny little girls, have two daughters who were born within weeks of each other and are now celebrating their daughters 4th birthday together with a combined party of cake, balloons (have I mentioned I am obsessed with balloons) and gymnastics! As the party started, I so wanted to be a little girl again and join the children with their carefree fun and play. I miss being a little girl, but I got such joy photographing the girls on their special day.

Ok, so I had to put two balloon pictures in. I LOVE kids with balloons. Say hi to Abbie, our first bithday girl.

Even as an adult I’m curious about what’s in those presents.

More balloons I know

Beautiful Morgan, our second birthday girl! Can we say future model?

Morgan’s little brother. How much do you love this hat?

He’s just waiting for his 1st birthday, which is around the corner.

Abbie’s little brother and her fathers hand. How much do I love the contrast between the sizes of the hands!

Abbie’s grandpa and little brother. Priceless moment.

Abbie’s got balance

Abbie’s got energy

Abbie’s got style

Morgan’s got the moves

Morgan’s got grace

Morgan is all attitude!

Who can wait for cake? Not me.

Party hats are the BEST! I think as adults we should still have them at our parties.

Notice the focus is on the cake. Could you say I was wanting a slice?

Total absorption in her birthday cake. I know the feeling Morgan.

Abbie’s little brother. Look at that face!
Thank you Rebecca and Leigh-Anne for letting me be apart of your daughters special day. Looking back I can’t believe we were once these little girls running around the church and now we all have babies of our own. So glad you are both still in my life.
The picture of the young girl with the balloons in black & white is astounding!
