Emi's 4th Birthday

It's hard to believe this little girl is turning 4 tomorrow!

A few days before Emi's actual birthday we celebrated with some friends at the park.
She was happy!
Emi was really into planning her birthday this year.  
She wanted the theme to be "Candy Land" and "rainbow."

She even wanted to help daddy make the cake.  The rainbow cake turned out yummy!
The night before her birthday, after she had fallen asleep we decorated her door way...

In the morning, Emi woke up and found the decorations and a few presents.

Emi was happily surprised to be greeted by us in the morning and of course to open a few gifts.

Sweet lil Tate taking a little snooze.

Time to cut the cake(s) yes, we had 2 cakes, just in case the rainbow cake didn't turn out. 
*Lucky for us it did and it was yummy*

Brando and Luca also came to celebrate Emi's special day!

Uncle Justin, Grammie, and the girls!

At this point getting the girls to take any more pictures was tough 
but Auntie Natalie and Uncle Justin found a way to make it fun!

Thank you everyone who came to celebrate Emi's 4th birthday with us!
