Happy 5th Birthday Audrey!

The Birthday Girl

A Full Day of Events

This is the third celebration Audrey's had to commemorate her 5th birthday so it was understandable that she told Grandma Kelly when she called this morning that she's "almost five." Audrey invited her friend Austin to go bowling this afternoon.

Kate's first time bowling - she only went once.

Audrey and Austin ready to battle it out - bumper style!


They only bowled one game because it took this long - each and every throw!


Audrey's bowling form - I think she gets it from her mom.

The final score: Audrey 73, Austin 88. Audrey found that real life bowling is a little different than bowling on the Wii (where she averages over 130, without bumpers!).

We did lunch at McDonald's Playland. There was a lot more play rather than eating going on.

After a special dinner Audrey was set to open presents, for the third time in the last month.

Plenty of princess gifts made Audrey a very happy girl!


Good call Auntie Kirsten!

Sarah took the girls outside after the gift opening to blow bubbles. She'd bought a bubble blowing gift, but it didn't work. So, she found herself filling in for the machine. The important thing was that the girls had FUN!


"Happy Birthday to Audrey!" (This was done in only 1 take - see previous blog: So Long Sacramento)


The delicious birthday cake!

Kate, enjoying the icing.

We ended the evening playing Audrey's Princess Wii game. She was pretty immersed in the action.

Check out her character - the one all decked out to the left of Ariel. I played the "plain" supporting cast - not even pictured.

We love you Audrey and can't get over how quickly you're growing up. Happy Birthday Beautiful Girl!
