This picture was taken 2 days before the birthday party as I was making the cake and getting it ready to freeze. The kids could not stay out of it...and neither could I to be honest. This cake batter was exceptionally yummy that day.
The day of the party, Monga made the frosting. How many kids does it take to get frosting and powdered sugar all over the kitchen? Only 1!! but in this case there are 2. Monga just thinks it's so funny.
Frosting the first layer was scary getting around the edges of the pointy crown. I almost tore it off a few times.
See the size of picture I had to work with? Luckily Sleeping Beauty's crown is easy to free-hand, but I had to stand there scratching my head for a little while figuring out how to make this itty bitty picture transfer to the size of a large cake.
Papa had been working in Argentina, but flew to our house instead of going home just for Brooklyn's birthday party. He flew in for less than 24 hours to be with Brooklyn for her birthday. Wow, what a sacrifice!!! That's a whole-lotta-love right there. Thanks Papa- you are amazing!
Papa putting frosting on their noses. Beckam kept trying to reach his tongue up to his nose to lick off the frosting.
Aunt Sue always decorates her gift bags to tie into the theme of the party. Brooklyn sat there staring at all the pretty pictures of Sleeping Beauty and her Prince. Brooklyn tells me she can't wait until she can have a prince too.
But, first she'll have to go through the 'boys are gross' phase, then we'll talk :)
Her cousins, Draden and Aliah came down
The finished product!
She got four sets of fairy wings, and a never ending bag of dress ups and jewelry from Aunt Sue and Uncle Ken. So, we invite all little girls over to play anytime!
About to blow out the candles... she blew out each individual one with their own full breath.
Beckam had a blast with the balloons all night. They occupied him for hours.
Princesses were a sure part of Brooklyn's birthday this year.
We can't believe we have a four-year-old princess ourselves. How do they get so old so fast?
We love you B-Kate, Happy Birthday!!!
