I really cannot believe that Emma is FOUR! I know that sounds so cliché but it’s true! I went into her room on the eve of her fourth birthday and I hugged her and prayed for her and shed a few tears. I LOVE her birthdays…they are fun and exciting and at the same time, they are tough. I want Emma to stay little…just a while longer! : )
Here are a few photos from Emma’s Toy Story birthday party… : )
The hats. From Target…they went well with the theme…embellished with pom poms and ric rack and ball fringe from my Grandma’s stash. It put a smile on my face to be able to use her goodies!
The patio all decorated for the party…the balloons had not arrived yet. It was in the 70s and sunny.
A close up of the fun “lollies” in the patio pots. They were huge and oh so fun! I made them using Toy Story wrapping paper and stickers and wrapping paper from the dollar section at Target and a bit of tulle. The centers of a few of the lollies were paper decorations from the summer clearance section at Target.
This photo makes me smile! : )
The birthday girl!
My girl is SERIOUS about Buzz and Woody. ; )
The cake. It was kind of messy (we added waaaay too much frosting) but it was still cute and lots of fun.
I had to include this photo… Because of Emma’s reflux and texture issues, this is the FIRST birthday party that she has ever been able to actually eat her own cake and cupcakes without incident!! Whew!!!
The rainbow cake!
Reading two of her new books before bedtime… “Too Many Tamales” and “Guatemala ABCs”. AND, even after the party, she still had Woody and Jesse on her mind!! : )
Sweet dreams, birthday girl! Mommy loves you!!
God bless, Tera
