{Semi} Wordless Wednesday

For today's {semi} Wordless Wednesday - I'd like to share with you some of my photos from the California Birthday weekend! 
This is the First Edition - I'll be sharing more pics with you as soon as my brother in law gets his sent over. He got some great ones I want to share with ya'll as well. 
For those who may not know - I took off on Saturday morning and headed to Anza, CA for my niece's 5th birthday, which was Monday. We had a wonderful weekend and her birthday party was fabulous! I took along my Bestie and my little adopted niece Maddy. The weather was absolutely perfect! 
Enjoy!

Fun With Cake Balls...

Sister made these for the adults who were at the party - the kids got goodie bags.

The Aftermath...
Bro-in-Law was supposed to be putting together the Rapunzel vanity - instead he was trying on the Rapunzel Hair.
Maddy helped out and put a lovely flower in it.

Aaaand then he flashed us all.... 

Stay tuned for the Second Edition - bro in law got an epic picture of me coming out of the bouncee castle head first....
