a grill kind of party

livy calls girls "grills". 

here we are with our traditional breakfast donut

 we always save their presents from us for the morning of their actual birthday

 this was a favorite........it broke 5 hours later. luckily it didn't break the glass and we could glue it, but it's only a matter of time.

 this was my favorite one. she is smiling so big behind that paper.

 livy had requested a "chocolate birthday" not just a cake, the whole thing. this is what we came up with. thanks to my friend lindsey for letting us use your fountain.

 it was a big hit

 here is ali with her rapunzel cake. i am not a posting a close up for obvious reasons. i really love decorating my kids' cakes every year, but for some reason i think i might be getting worse at it.

 these 2 ladies were being goofy together

 our beautiful birthday girls wanted to be in their princess costumes while they opened their presents.

 ali got a baton and she started practicing. the front row was nervous.

 here is livy's cinderelli cake

 i told livy to sit on the floor so she didn't spill.

 then i told her to eat over her plate. what a good listener.

the party was super fun, thanks everyone for making this special for my little "grills".
