2 going on...

My ridiculously adorable twin neices (though maybe I'm just a little biased :) celebrated their 2-year birthday this past Sunday with 40 of their closest friends and family. The theme was Elmo, which was evidenced most clearly with yummy Elmo cupcakes (though there were also s'mores cupcakes for those who didn't want to bite off Elmo's head - both types were baked by my friend Sarah of Sweet Bites).

Anyway, here are a couple of snapshots from the very memorable event. (Disclaimer: Photos may appear blurry due to photographer's inability to hold her phone's camera stationary.)

Olivia thoroughly enjoying her Elmo cupcake.

Cassie throwing back shots of milk to wash down the Elmo cupcake. Please note that poor Elmo's eye lies precariously alone on the table. Who knows what fate awaits the abandoned marshmallow eyeball.

As a well-stocked bar is always a staple of any party at the Bomba household, Livie took it on herself to begin playing bartender. Or at least she decided the quality of the ice would be vastly improved if she handled every piece of it.

Livie awaiting her next victim - I mean customer - to which to serve ice. Note the supporting cast of Uncle Mike.
