Omaha Birthday

Heidi's birthday celebration continued into our Omaha wedding trip! We let Heidi open her main birthday present early - just in time for the long car ride - a Nintendo DS!


Then it was off for a quick visit in Omaha to celebrate a wedding! I don't have very many pictures from the event yet - just a few cell phone pictures at the end of this post. Once the professional ones are posted - I will share!

I did capture them saying good bye to each other before the big day!



Then Sunday was Heidi's actual birthday! She was so excited to be in Omaha and go to the zoo with everyone.


Grandma Babs did a fantastic job surprising her with decorations. Heidi was so thankful for making her birthday special. I also ordered a special request from Heidi - cheetah cake that is rainbow on the inside. A good friend's sister has a cake company and was able to create Heidi's wild idea. They were really really good! Check them out on Facebook! Mad Cake Art!


 We did have an excellent breakfast at of course Farm House before we went to the zoo!


Thank you again for everyone who came out. It was a large group and Heidi was so happy to have everyone there. She said she just wanted everyone to spend the day with her.


Lucy's best friend, Aunt Val came and joined us too. Those two are buddies ever since they spent 13 hours in the car together!


Sorry we all look so sweaty - it was HOT!


 More people joined!


This is Heidi in the elevator when she goes - "I can't believe everyone is here!"


 If you look closely there is a tiny little baby orangutan! So cute!


Aunt Val was happy to take Lucy's rejected snow cone. :)


 My favorite part - the aquarium - its hard to take pictures in there - but so many cool areas!


We were all EXHAUSTED after the zoo. After a slight nap - Grandma Babs and Grandpa got her a cake too.

 Uncle Matt and then gang stopped by for one last quick goodbye!


It was a very fast and exhausting Omaha trip but fun! I think the big birthday celebration is finally done! Here are the couple of cell phone pictures from the wedding - more to come when I get my hands on them!


Heidi also had her yearly check up. She is 30% percentile for height and weight! The doctor says she is in excellent health and to keep up the good work!

It is going to be a busy June! The pig roast, Chris' bday, Father's Day and potty training are all in the near future!
