Rose had such a fun birthday party this year!  The theme was “My Little Pony” and was at the carousel.  Each one of our girls had a carousel birthday party, so this was super special and sentimental!

The big girls helped Rara and me decorate this year, and we had it all set up in record time!

Rose could not have been more excited her “My Little Pony” party was finally here!

Harper was so excited to get the party started with her Auntie Momo!

We collected all the little ponies for table décor and our present to Rose.  She has played with them constantly every day since her party!

We’ve had this pony train set for years that is around the base of the cake, so when Rose picked this theme, I just knew it would be a hit to have it riding around the cake!

The girls and I have been crafting ever since Christmas break for Rose’s party, and we were so excited it turned out so cute!

The girls had so much fun turning the train on and off just for fun!

After we finished decorating, the girls put on their bands for unlimited carousel rides, and we got this party started!

Anna Kate, Harper, Fancy Nancy and Saylor rode the bench all together to start out!

Saylor is such a fun and beautiful baby girl!  So far, she prefers her Mommy and Rara, but I’ve got my eye on her!  Winking smile

Rose was on Cloud 9!

These are the moments I live for right here!  I cannot put into words my love for our sweet baby Rose!

Rose was soooo excited!

Isn’t she such a ham?  I have a friend who always says Rose needs her own show.  She really does!  From the scratch on her cheek to the hair she decided to cut on her left side (because she said she was having a bad day and needed a hair cut) and these silly poses, she is a hot mess through and through!  She has the best friends in the world!  Aren’t they all so cute and silly!?

IMG_2108 IMG_2101

Shelby and Malia arrive on the scene!

IMG_2112

Katie, Rose and Cerly always have a blast when they are together!

IMG_2117

Emily and Ava come over so much that Rose considers them to be her best friends too.  We are so blessed our girls have such sweet and caring friends!

IMG_2123

Eden and Ava are adorable!

IMG_2125 IMG_2134

Everyone was so very happy today!  It was the most fun, relaxed and care free party we’ve ever had.  It’s so great now that the girls are a little older, and we can just chill and play with no melt downs!

IMG_2137

Nancy, Jaalisa and Rachel are some of my very best friends!  I rarely share my social life on the blog because it’s my time to get away and chill, but it’s friends like these that keep me going when no one is watching!

IMG_2161 IMG_2143

Lots of fun with Daddy, KayKay and Eden!

IMG_2162

Caden and Anna Kate are such sweet little buddies!

IMG_2168

Riann, Natalie and Jaalisa were hanging out with me right before cake time!  Again, I love my friends!!!  Wish I had gotten a picture with all my Mommy friends, but they all know how much I love them! 

IMG_2186

There’s nothing better than watching your child as all her friends and family sing happy birthday to her!  Seeing her get showered with all the love and attention in the room is just the sweetest thing.  She was so bashful but so very happy!

IMG_2197 IMG_2194

After we sang happy birthday and blew out the candles, it was time for the big fluffy cloud to turn into a rainbow!

IMG_2222 IMG_2223

Rose couldn’t wait to see her rainbow cake!  My friend Jaalisa made it from scratch for Rose, and it was the best cake I’ve ever had.  Thank you, Jaalisa!  You’re simply amazing! 

IMG_2230 IMG_2309

Here is Noelle with our great family friends, Haley and Brianna, and Rose with her running buddy, Harper!  Love these girls so much!

IMG_2241 IMG_2281

Malia and Anna Kate rode the carousel over and over again together and had a blast.  Rose was telling GrandPapa all about it!

IMG_2293 IMG_2299

At the end of the party, Rose had fun waving to all her friends who were still riding the carousel.  I thought that was so cute!  Rainbow Dash is her favorite pony for the moment.  Winking smile Rose and Rara are two peas in a pod!

IMG_2314 IMG_2316

Malia and Landon were Anna Kate’s very first friends in life, and it is such a joy watching them grow up together!

IMG_2322

Landon and Logan make me smile so big!  Jon and Heather know how to make beautiful baby boys!  I’m so lucky that my best friends have the cutest, sweetest boys!  Anytime I need a boy fix, I know where to go!  Winking smile

After we were all partied out, we watched the ice skaters and headed home for naps!  Rose, you are so very loved, and we had a blast celebrating your first 4 years today!  We are crazy about you, kid!  Keep being awesome!!!
