Lilly's 5th Birthday Party

After the Nutcracker, my family came over to celebrate Lilly's 5th birthday.

what do you think it is?

Thanks Grandma

must be amazing, Grandpa

Lilly went to change..Ella and Amelia color

there's the present...a White Christmas dress!  Lilly is obsessed with the movie..now she has the red dress with matching red gloves!

and white fur shawl

Janelle gave her silver high heels!  per Lilly, "someone in this family is a rockstar!"

Cinderella style

Hello Kitty stuff!

thanks Lora

Lilly has been wanting this extra rich chocolate cake from Costco for awhile..but, she was also oogling the cake at Target that had a crown on it...so, we added the crown, and she was sooo happy.

obligatory family pic

the photo does not do this cake 'blowing out' justice.  We had some technical difficulties with the lighter, and, then duing the singing of Happy Birthday, Amelia fell off the stool and wacked her lip, so we had to start over again...after settling down.

but, the princess got her cake
