Happy Birthday, Aubry!!

Three days early, this three-year-old celebrated her FOURTH birthday - FISH style

 

She prepped for the event with a secret photo-shoot with Julie, 

 

a pedicure in a butterfly chair,  

 and a new fish dress 

 When her guests arrived, they filled bottles with colored sand. It was beautiful art!

 Then we had Fish game time,

 and lots of laughs with Rose

Even the food was fish themed! (Fish bowl jello, fish bread for sloppy joe and pulled pork, a fish plate with chocolate covered pretzels, and a delicious fish cake from Grandma Karen)

 

 

 

 Morgyn was trying to be a big girl during dinner, feeding herself

 During present time, this little sister and little brother were being very nosey! 

 

 And the first present taken out of the package was La La Loopsy Silly Hair (from Rose)

 Cake Time!!

 

It was an amazing party. Aubry had a great time. Thank you so much for the great summer clothes and fun games she got.

On Aubry's actual birthday, she woke up to find a balloon shaped like a 4 in her room. She was thrilled! Her birthday was on a "school day" so she got to bring treats for her classmates and wear the birthday crown. Later that day, Grandma Nancy brought Kyri and Tessa over, and Pop and Aunt Sue came by to sing Happy Birthday and have mini cupcakes (a great tradition for the little ones).

After dinner, Aubry had another extra special surprise visitor. Aunt Sherry and Uncle Scott brought a Strawberry Shortcake balloon and two figures for her Strawberry Shortcake toys. We've been waiting and waiting for Raspberry Torte, and she arrived!! (Now if only we could find Bluberry Muffin...)

This is a happy birthday girl!

 Aubry just had to try on this beautiful dress from Aunt Sherry right away.

The day after her birthday, we continued the celebrating with Mia at Chick-Fil-A at their Pirates and Princesses theme night.

 

We had lots of busy birthday events. When I brought Aubry to bed on her birthday, this is a conversation we had:
Me: Did you have a fun birthday?

A: Yah, I can't wait to be FIVE!

Me: Five? You just turned four. You have to wait until it's April again.

A: Aw, I do? April, May, June, July, August, September, October, November, December.

Me: January..

A: February, March, April. A whole year?!?

 

They just can't wait to grow up....

I am so proud to be her mom. I love the little girl she is growing up to be!
