Aubrey turns 5!!!

Our Aubrey Grace has turned 5!!! Wow...time is flying by. This girl is personality and then some! Her face is so expressive and her heart is so tender. She is a people person, she loves being where the people are. If she talks to someone for more than 2 minutes, they are her newest closest friend =) She loves school for snack time and recess ;-)

For her birthday this year, she chose Chuck E. Cheese once again. After carefully selecting her list of friends, we prepared for her party only to have 3 families end up with last minute cancellations. My heart broke for her when she asked on the morning of her birthday which friends were coming and I had to tell her of all the ones who couldn't come. Fortunately Aubrey has this personality to feel an emotion, very sad and wanting to invite more friends to come to the party in an hour and a half!, but then she moves onto her next emotion of being excited for her birthday party. I pray that she never loses this ability to keep her emotions so self-limiting.

Happy 5th birthday Aubrey!!

At our house, you get to chose the birthday menu on your day. Aubrey is our breakfast queen. She likes breakfast, brunch and binner (breakfast for dinner!). Breakfast was donuts and eggs, dinner was cream of wheat! Candles for all meals please!

See what I mean about personality?!?!

Party fun: an air-jam session with a balloon guitar, pizza, and Chuck E. Cheese giving a birthday hug

Crown, presents and party friends!

The real reason Aubrey wanted her birthday at Chuck E. Cheese was a chance to go in the TICKET BLASTER! She definitely was excited!! And she even got to choose a friend to help her. Logan was the lucky helper =)

One final birthday hoorah!

Sisters snuggled up to watch a movie together.
