A Big Birthday Bash


Today was Gracie's birthday party. She wanted to have a princess party again, but wanted a princess, ballerina, fairy, queen, prince, castle and a dragon on her cake. Poor me! Somehow we managed to squeeze everything on the cake (minus the dragon). I know it's blurry, but this is the only picture I have of Gracie blowing out her candles.

Nana Kaser gave Gracie a devotion book for Princesses. It's really cute!

A Barbie Christmas ornament that Gracie had been coveting was one gift she was excited to receive.

Gracie hated receiving 3 Barbies for her birthday! That was too many. Yeah, right! She loved them all.

At five years old, Gracie apparently understands the power that comes with money!

Cousin Kalyn was helping Gracie open her birthday presents. Gracie usually "helps" Kalyn on her birthday too.

This was one of Gracie's birthday invitations. You can't beat a good dollar store find!

Our lighting must be horrible throughout the whole house. My pictures always look dark. Anyway...this picture shows the castle tablecloth that we earned using our Disney Movie Reward points. It was absolutely free, and was a really neat interactive game as well as a tablecloth. It would ask you a question about a princess, and you had to touch the correct princess on the tablecloth and it would tell you if your answer was correct. No one could understand how it worked. It was absolutely amazing.

Gracie proudly stood by her cake that she decorated. It was a crowded cake, but it included some of her favorite things. She had fun decorating it.

It was a great party and fun to watch Gracie open her presents. Someone taught her to say thank you appropriately before opening another gift. She was very sweet!

Cute birthday party. Lindsey has that princess bible, she loves it and it is so worn out and all torn up.

Great job on the party stuff!
