What were all the things that made a birthday party awesome as a kid? A jumper slide was one. Lots of bubbles was another. A personalized cake that you can dig your fingers right into? Doesn’t get much better than that!

I had the honor of photographing a party on Saturday that had all of this and more! Twins Christian and Brooke were turning the big TWO and had a spectacular party to celebrate, full of family and friends. Those two are lucky to be born into such a cool family – everyone was super friendly and always making sure we had enough to eat and drink – they even packed us plates full of food and cake to go!

It was an awesome party and the fun of the day spilled over onto the drive back, as we happened upon a couple exciting places, but that shall be saved for a separate entry. Until then some party pics!

Some details… I love the green theme!

Balloons galore:

Fervently comparing chip size…

A few more fun moments…

Brooke looks a little disconcerted in this photo, but she’s really in the midst of saying “cheeeeeese!”





Time for the cake! This one’s for the guests…



…but Brooke & Christian get their very own!
