birthday buds

Isla and Vivian's favorite cousin turned EIGHT at the beginning of June! We ventured up north to Massachusetts (along with Madonna, Maureen, Pop Pop and Gigi) and spent a beautiful weekend celebrating her and Uncle Robby-Dobby (you love it) whose birthday is the day before hers. Here are some shots from when we took over their home:

starting off the weekend right!

soccer star! (we watched her last game and then a lacrosse practice)

then this guy showed up

lots of fun times relaxing on the patio

goes without saying, but these two had a lot of fun

and someone scored some new wheels for her big day!

can't believe she's eight!

Then there was the birthday party at Cavanna's Mom's house. They had a bouncy house (that, thankfully, did not fly away) which was a huge hit, as were the games, pizza and CAKE! Isla was in her element: donning a flower crown like her big cousin, running around barefoot in the grass and attempting to make friends with all of the big girls.

vivian: "I'm just happy to be here!"

someone seems satisfied!
