Rachel's 4th Birthday

Rachel is 4 years old today!  She requested a pink flower cake - and her favorite flavor is carrot cake.  Although cake-decoration is not my forte (I admit, I mainly lack the desire to make it a forte), I think it turned out pretty cute and mostly flower-shaped.  She was quite happy with it.  


We celebrated as a family in the evening at Chuck E. Cheese's - eating pizza, playing games, and riding small rides.  Happy Birthday, sweet 4 year old girl!!  We are so glad you are in our family!

Big gift from Mom and Dad: an indoor SLIDE!!

Kierstyn was a bit nervous to meet Chuck E., but Rachel downright refused out of fear.

Most-requested item for her birthday: a jewelry box!

Princess Lunchbox to use at school!

Good blowing!
