Home Makes Me Happy: Rylee's 4th Birthday Blast!

I love this girl! She lights up my life! Here's a look at Rylee celebrating turning 4 years old.

The day before her birthday was a preschool day so Mom and Rylee made chocolate cupcakes together. Rylee helped put the sprinkles on top.

That night (birthday eve), the house was decorated. Olaf, balloons, streamers, and the special birthday girl chair.

Streamers on Rylee's door was a hit!

Rylee shares her birthday with our backyard neighbor, Julia Troxell. Julia turned 2. Julia's mom, Michelle, made Rylee this birthday crown. Later on Rylee and Julia had a shared birthday "sprinkle" at the park by our houses. It was organized by Michelle. Everyone sang to both of the girls and had pink frosted cupcakes and capri suns. Sunglasses and necklaces were given out as favors.

Family time celebrating.

Rylee's birthday party was 3 days later on a Monday, so Mom got busy working on a fondant Olaf to put on top of a yummy vanilla cream Costco cake. It turned out pretty well.

Dad took a trip to the mountain Monday morning and came back with SNOW to add to the "Frozen" theme for the party. It went over really well!

Saddest part ever was saying good-bye to Uncle Bryce. He had to leave the party early to get set apart and then leave the next morning to go to Utah. He entered the MTC 2 days later on Wednesday. We will miss him, but we have had fun writing letters and we sent a package already.
