Happy Birthday Emerson!

My little girl is 4 years old!  WOW! I love her more than words can express.  She is so loving and fun. And at the same time she is super sassy and independent. She is smart and stubborn. She is hilarious and thoughtful. She is such an amazing part of our family.

The morning of her birthday, we let her open presents from us.  One of them was a new waffle maker so we made a waffle breakfast.  Then, we just got to hang out as a family all morning and watched Tangled of course. :) 



And even played a little Wii.

Our girl loves donuts, so we decided to have an afternoon party at Lamar's with her friends.  She couldn't have been more excited and it ended up being really fun.  We played some donut games, ate yummy donuts, toured the bakery, and then went to play at a park nearby.

Here she is at the donut shop...

 Yep, we ordered a few donuts. And every kid got to pick their own flavor of milk. :)

 We threw Beanie Babies into a huge donut target
 Then of course had to eat donuts off a string





 Yum!

 Emmy made sure she was right in the front.

 Then, that night we had a pizza party at Old Chicago's with family.  We are lucky to have such a great family - almost 20 of us were there to celebrate.
We brought our pink straws and princess plates there too.


We had to keep Smith entertained somehow. :)

Have I mentioned I love this little girl to pieces?
