Aubrey's 4th Birthday Party!

It is hard to believe our sweet baby girl will be 4 tomorrow!  Time flies when you have children!  After last year's enormous party, we decided to keep things smaller this year.  There was an even number of children so everyone had a friend and played quietly.  Our theme was pink and purple and everyone helped with something.  All of us decorated the dining room, Aubrey helped make her cake, the boys iced the cupcakes, and Davis helped Rick blow up balloons.  We had a princess castle cake, Pinkalicous cupcakes, fruit in ice cream cones, and pretzels dipped in chocolate with sprinkles.  The party was a huge success!

Aubrey's best friend, Madeline, was our entertainment.  This is Madeline from the front...

She sure enjoyed her cake!  Especially the icing!

Even the boys liked the pink and purple cake!

Baby Cora needed her Daddy's drink!  She's Colton's baby sister.

Time to open presents!

The boys all watched from upstairs.

The girls preferred to sit a little closer.

LOTS of pink, sparkly stuff!

She especially loved this tutu Ms. Annette gave her!

I wonder what they're laughing about.  Maybe I don't want to know!
