Birthday Girl!!

I can't hardly believe it, but our little princess is now 4 years old. This year she has grown so much, she literally takes my breath away. I am so grateful that I have her in our family. She is so sweet, a good friend to others, beautiful, smart, and such a big helper to her mom. She also has such a desire to be good (especially for her teachers at school and church). How did I get so blessed?

Ash decided she wanted to have a tea birthday party and only invite girls. We had so much fun, and all of the girls were just darling! The highlights were of course the presents that she could not wait for, the castle bounce house that got many hours of play, and the tea party. When it was time for the tea party the girls sat so quietly and were so polite. I can't believe the difference between Ashtyn's birthday parties vs. Eric's boy birthday parties. I think if I had to choose between them I would want to throw a girl party every time!!
The castle bounce house was a big hit, and made it so I didn't have to entertain which is exactly what I was looking for.
All of the girls decided to put on a show and sing songs to the Dad's and Grandpa that were at the party.
This is the first birthday cake that I have made. Ash was very excited that it was a tea pot and I learned a lot of what to do better next time, but it was really fun to do.
The shirt that I am wearing was a birthday present from Ashtyn to me. She made sure that I wore it to her birthday party so people would know that I am a princess also. She also gets upset when I don't wear it everyday. It says, "The princess is pregnant".
