Happy 4th Birthday!!

Amazing how time flies! On the 27th the twins turned 4 years old. I still can't believe it. They are getting so tall! The night before, they were asking about when they were born. It was cute reliving the story with them.

In the morning, we dropped Gwen off at school then went to the party store and got decorations. The twins loved being able to pick out stuff for their party. Tristan found a STARWARS hat and Ethne picked out a Hello Kitty princess crown, among other things.
We then went to Fred Meyer to pick out their cakes. Ethne picked a cupcake cake with a rainbow on it and Tristan said he just wanted a plain chocolate cake. We then had the cake lady write 'Happy Birthday' & their names.

Gwen came home around noon and helped me decorate and clean up the living room and playroom. Bri came home early and mowed the lawn, then went and got the pizza.

We threw a party for family and they started showing up around 6pm. Luckily, the sun came back out so everyone was able to play wiffle ball and goof around outside.

We all ate, then did presents... which was a massive fury of flying paper and elated screams. Tristan got enough STARWARS figures to last a while and Ethne is set on Littlest Pet Shoppe toys.

Then came cake time.... Make a wish!

Tristan, who usually doesn't like cake at all, ended up having 3 pieces (small ones, lol). I think the cake smudge on his face says it all!

Thanks to everyone who came, it was a great night, and thank you for all the presents as well.

Happy Birthday!
