princess birthday girl

Sophie had a magical birthday! To celebrate, on the day before her actual birthday, she had her special friend Autumn over for a princess tea party.

(most of these photos were taken by Jen, Autumn’s mom. thanks, Jen!!)

Sophie had soooooo much fun. She declared it her “best birthday ever!!!!!” even before her birthday had arrived.

The night before birthdays, we always pile all the gifts on the table so the kids wake up to the thrill of it in the morning.

Later in the day, we made the cake. Or rather, I made the cake while Sophie ate as much batter as she could get away with.

Elliot helped decorate it.

Our beautiful princess is 4! What a milestone!
