Summer and Tilly's princess party.

I have so much blogging to catch up on, I hardly know where to begin, but I think it best to just pick up where I left off.  We spent a week in July with Papa and Gigi (the girls and I) while Carter and David went to Wyoming on a mission trip.  During that week we celebrated our two eldest princesses, since we won't be with David's family again for quite some time.  Now there's one thing Gigi knows how to do and that's throw a party!  She did such a great job with the sweet decorations for the girls' party.  
My girls are so into princesses right now, so it's only apporpriate that we plan a party accordingly.
All of our children just love balloons, love them!
Here are the two princes of our house helping to celebrate before their big trip.  
Cupcakes for the princesses.  

I love the expressions on their faces in these two pictures, so excited and full of anticipation.  
Pure joy!
If you didn't already know this about our Story girl, she loves cupcakes!  
Our handsome boy.  His sisters sure did miss him while he was gone out west.  
Tilly so proud of her new princess doll.  
Summer posing with her new legos from Aunt Karen.  
Tilly excited about some legos, too!
We have a thing about balloons at our house.  They are so much fun, and our children love them so much, but we don't allow our children to play with them.  When David was younger, a family friend lost their younger child after choking on a balloon, so we look at them, use them to celebrate, but we always let them go up into the clouds.  
Thank you, Papa and Gigi for helping us to celebrate our two princesses.  Thank you, too, for hosting us while the boys were away.  We loved our time with you.  David and Carter took the camera on their trip, so these are the only pictures I have of our time in Arkansas.  Thankfully, my SIL came to visit later in the week, so you can check out her blog for some more pictures of our time in Arkansas.

When we get balloons we also let them go, but we tell the boys they are sending their balloons to Jesus, which makes them very happy! They usually yell, "I love you, Jesus!" and then send their balloons to heaven.
