For Madeline's 2nd birthday we did a circus theme and had a great time playing games and eating all kinds of fun foods you would eat at a circus or carnival! We had fun games in the backyard (ring toss, goldfish toss, go fish, bean bag toss, a photo booth and bubble machine; I even got my dad to do face painting for the kids...which they all loved...THANK YOU, Grandpa!). The kids had fun playing all the games and getting candy after each game they played, along with other fun prizes. Madeline had the most fun with her friend, Hudson, playing/popping bubbles from the bubble machine (courtesy of Uncle Justin & Aunt Becca). Probably one of my most favorite moments of the night was when Maddie was opening her presents. She LOVED opening them this year and LOVED showing everyone what she got...I mean holding her stuff up and walking around to each person to make sure they saw it. She is so funny and we love her so very much. Hope you had a fun party, Madeline...I know mommy had fun! And a BIG THANKS to Miss Kristin and Leah who helped pull it off!!

She LOVED the balloons. This was right before she "lost" them and they got stuck in the fan.
Even Eleanor got in on the action!

Goldfish toss...instead of winning real goldfish they won goldfish crackers.
