Happy 4th Birthday Alexa!!!!

Alexa is now 4!  Wow, what a fun and exhausting four years it has been.  Lexi is definitely our firecracker!  You are only allowed one right!?   She has so much personality there is never a boring day with her around.  We sure love her and all of that personality.  She is a leader at heart and knows exactly what she wants and how to get it.  She had so much fun with her birthday and all of the attention!
Lexi wanted a backyard birthday with watermelon and hot dogs...how easy is that?!  We made it a red, black and white theme, threw some balloons and balls in and walla, we had a party.  The kids played on the trampoline, ate lunch, ate cupcakes and went home for the much needed naps.  It was 80 degrees out and they played for 3 non stop hours...they were exhausted!  She had so much fun and is already planning her next birthday!  The kids saw these very large suckers (pictured below) at Fred Meyers and had to have them!  I thought they would make a fun party favor and they were such a huge hit, at least with the kids....sorry all you parents!  Do these not remind you of Disneyland?  So fun and so easy.  Happy Birthday to my sweet, fun, unpredictable little girl.  We love you!!!!!

What a cutie. Maybe she takes after her mom? :) You are way too good at throwing parties. I should hire you for my kids! And, where did you get the tutus and shirts?

Throwing parties are fun! I get the tutus and shirts from etsy.com

I can not say enough great things about the lady I bought the shirts from!!! http://www.etsy.com/shop/bowdaciousbaby

The tutus I just looked up and bought the ones I liked :) It makes the girls feel so special!
