Audrey's 4th and 5th Birthdays

Just so that Audrey knows one day in the future that we did celebrate her 4th birthday, I will post about it now, even though it is over a year past due in posting.  It was one of my favorite parties, but it was a lot of hard work.  I took the easy route for her 5th birthday.

4th birthday party theme:  Get Pampered like a Princess.  I really dislike princesses-y stuff.  When Audrey told me she wanted a princess party, I encouraged her for more of a spa party.  I'll just post pictures and then get on with this year's party.  BTW, she always has friends that become sick and miss her parties.  I fear it's just that time of year and we'll always be missing someone special.

And now onto this year's party.  She wanted to follow in her cousin, Macy's, footsteps and have her party at Build-a-Bear.  That sounded much easier and she and her friends had a lot of fun.  Then we had a family party with the grandparents and an aunt the day before her birthday (which is also when we did our baby reveal).  We ended the night going to the wedding for our children's minister.  I think she loved her first wedding!
