Finally 4!

Brooke has been wanting to be 4-years-old for about 6 months now. Fortunately, her birthday fell on a Saturday so we were able to do all the celebrating in one day!

So she started the day with a small party with a few friends; Sarya, Paige, and Brooke are decorating hats as a fun craft:

The girls are so stylish!
We played a few games, including this one - Pretty, Pretty Princess:

Each of the girls decorated their own cupcake and then we sang "Happy Birthday" to Brooke:

Sarya, Paige, Kate, Brooke, Briana:
Opening presents from her friends:

It conveniently worked out that Mike took the boys to play in their first baseball game at the same time as the party so we invited Grandma over too to make it a complete Girl Party.
Grandma and her little princess:
Mike and I like to take our birthday child out to dinner at a restaurant of their choice (McDonalds) on their birthday for a special date. So it wasn't until after her bath and curlers in her hair that we were all together as a family to open the family presents:
It was a fun day for her and she is already counting the days until she turns 5!
We love you, Brookey-girl!

David's Daily Duties

I'm loving that David is getting into trains... He loves to push them around the track and is very entertained!
And he is also loving the marble track!

But daddy is NOT happy at all to come home from work and see what he is loving to dress up in...
