Folly Beach Part 2/Anna's Birthday, parts I and II of III!!!!

 Since Mom and Diane were unable to make it to Anna's party at our house this year, we had a party at the beach!  Yes, we have been celebrating this little girl's birthday ALL MONTH LONG!  (She sure has loved it, too!)
Our beach party had a Mickey and Minnie Mouse theme.  She loved us singing happy birthday to her!!

Mimi sure can make good bows!

Who knew the Piggly Wiggly did such a great job with birthday cakes?!!?

Sweet one of Mimi and Anna

Look who got some high heels?!?!

Loving her princess dress up clothes!

Such a classic!

 On her actual birthday, the 15, our little family celebrated at home like usual.  Since Dalton was born, we have developed a tradition of the "birthday party" and a separate "family celebration", because I always want to celebrate on the actual day, and sometimes it's not possible to have the party on that day.  So, I usually make a cake and fix their favorite meal at home and we sing happy birthday and open presents from mom/dad and sibling.  :)
