Anna's birthday celebration

We didn't get to do much as a family on Anna's actual birthday, so on Saturday we celebrated all together. Steve and Marcy were here (because they bought their house on Friday! more on that soon...) and Jill and her boys came over. The kids just played, we ate pizza, and had a little Easter egg hunt. Anna really enjoyed the extra birthday wishes!

My friend Deborah made Anna an adorable birthday hat, shirt, and banner. They were so cute!

Anna really liked finding Easter eggs. She wanted to stop and eat the candy out of all of them before picking up more.
The crazy crew of kids. Pretty soon there will be three more when Jill and I get together. It will be real crazy then :)
Anna loves cookies (she calls them cook-oys) so we got her a cookie cake. She wasn't sure about blowing out any candles.
But she did enjoy eating the cookie and ice cream.
Poor 3rd child--I never even wrapped her birthday presents. The big kids just took them out of the boxes they had been shipped in and handed them to her. We got her a book, a cd, a doggy backpack, and an outside water table. Jill gave her 2 books, one of which is about Princesses and she loves loves loves it. Mimi and PopPop gave her lots of cute clothes, her own sleeping bag, and a doll that hopefully she'll play with so that she'll leave Catherine's American girl doll alone. So far it's working!

We loved celebrating Anna and her birthday last week!
