Camryn is 2!!!

Camryn is 2 years old! Holy cow!

Camryn was lucky and got to celebrate her birthday twice this year! We did it the first time when we were visiting out in Utah. Let me just preface these pictures with an explanation. We celebrated the 4th a couple days earlier and Camryn had a terrible experience. She was having a great time until she picked up a sparkler that had already been used and she burnt her fingers. After that she didn't want to have anything to do with fire, fireworks, anything like that. So when we went to get her cake/cupcakes ready she was very pleased and happy until...
Until she saw the fire....

She SCREAMED and literally tried to climb up me to get as far away from it as possible!

I had to blow out her candles since she had a death grip on me and wouldn't go near them.

After we blew the candles out and I pulled her hands off of me, she ran away to the other room and wouldn't even look at the cupcakes until we took everything off of them. Once she had her cupcake and saw all traces of fire were gone, then she was happy again.

So when we went to celebrate her birthday back home, we decided that we wouldn't do candles.

She had a much better time this time!

We were even lucky enough to get Grandma Goodwin on the webcam with us! It was really cool to be able to include her in our celebration with her being so far away.


We love you so much Camryn!!! Happy Birthday!

It's a good thing she got to celebrate twice. Or you would have on your conscience that you ruined her second birthday. But that picture of her crying in front of her cup cakes has got to be kept for all the future slide shows--young women recognition, wedding, etc.
