Clara's 2nd Birthday

Clara turned 2 years old on May 21, 2011, we had a small birthday party for her at our house with just close friends and family. Her birthday was Toy Story themed, because she is obsessed with the movies. She calls it "Toy Toy" and she plays with her Jessie dolls and says "yodel yodel yodel".

 Auntie Misty made the most amazing cake. It's Andy's bed with the characters on it. It even had a little adorable pillow. It was so cute!!

 Clara was so excited with all the commotion going on that she wouldn't even take a picture with me.

 Clara is terrified of the "Birthday Song" & candles. When we are at restaurants and it's someone's birthday she flips out. So this picture captures her fear perfectly. I felt so bad, I thought she would have been over it by now but NOPE!!

 "Misty HELP me!!"

 I felt so sorry for her, and she only cried for a few minutes, I hope she out grows it, because Auntie Misty still hates the birthday song and refuses to be sang to.

 Later that evening we were invited to the annual Neville Party. The theme this year was African Safari. They had so many exotic animals, and tons of food, shaved ice, face painting and East High's Choir came and performed. It was really fun, Clara had the BEST 2nd birthday.

 The best picture I could get of the girls. They refused to pose for me.

 How many 2 years old can say they fed a giraffe on their birthday? Clara can!! She loved it!
