Annie Turned FOUR!

This girl had a birthday yesterday! She enjoyed every minute.
Daddy brought her home some balloons and a princess crown the night before. She was ecstatic waking up to them in the morning. This girl loves princesses.
She had a quick picture with daddy before he left for work.
 
 Sisters :)
 Shae is constantly trying to keep up with Annie...
 We had a few visitors... The Paternosters dropped off a present and some cookies! Annie was thrilled. Don't they all look alike? They are definitely family.

 My Beautiful Aunt
After lunch and naps, we ventured out to the park. The girls love this place... despite Annie's lovely look. The looks they have when they are concentrating crack me up. Here are a few examples...
And my personal favorite...
 This nice man helped Annie try out his daughters bike. It took a few bribes to pry her off of it.
 Walking home, hand - in - hand.
 Then it was party time!
(Another picture taken on my phone)
We started by opening presents.
 Her expressions were priceless. 
"New panties?!! What?!! Thank you!!!"
 "Fingernail polish?!! Oh. My. Gosh."
 We ended our day, blowing out candles and eating cupcakes and ice cream.
Her birthday wish - To go the Disney Land someday... bless her heart. Someday... Someday...
 I am so grateful for my Annie! She is such a blessing in my life. I could not have asked for a better oldest child. Love her to pieces.

Stay tuned for another party this Sunday celebrating both Annie AND Nathan! It's going to be great :)

I cannot believe she is FOUR! So weird. Time goes so fast! I think Avie has that same shirt it looks like Annie got for her birthday. I love those expressions of her opening the presents!
